    The human ear is composed of three main parts - the outer, middle, and inner ear. The outer ear collects sound waves and channels them through the ear canal to the eardrum. The middle ear contains three small bones called the malleus, incus, and stapes that vibrate the eardrum and amplify sound waves to the inner ear. The inner ear contains the cochlea, which converts sound wave vibrations into neural signals that are sent to the brain for processing and interpretation. The inner ear also contains the vestibular system which provides our sense of balance and spatial orientation. The range of human hearing is typically between 20-20,000 Hz, but can vary depending on factors like

    •
    • is the outer ear that collects
    the sound waves and focuses
    into the ear canal.

    • transmits the sound waves to


    the eardrum
    • which is responsible for
    separating the outer and the
    middle ear physically.
    • Malleus (Hammer)
    • Incus (Anvil)
    • Stapes (Stirrup)
    • convert the small-amplitude
    vibration of the ear drum into
    large amplitude oscillations. These
    oscillations are transferred to the
    inner ear through the oval window.
    • which is the snail-shell shaped
    liquid-filled organ that is behind
    the oval window of our ears.

    • which is consists of the vestibule and


    semicircular canals, which are
    responsible for the sense of balance
    and spatial orientation. They detect
    changes in head position and
    movement and send signals to the
    brain to maintain balance.
    Sound of Various
    Frequencies:
    • Infrasonic sound are
    soundwaves with extremely
    low frequency which is less
    than 20 Hz and cannot be
    perceived by the human ear.
    • Examples of animals that can detect
    infrasonic sounds are elephants and
    whales.
    • These animals use infrasonic
    rumbles to communicate over
    long distances, conveying
    information about their
    location, reproductive status,
    social hierarchy, and potential
    threats.
    • Audible sound are sound
    waves within the hearing
    range which starts from
    20Hz – 20,000Hz.
    • A human voice is an example of
    audible sounds.
    • Ultrasonic sound are
    sound waves that has a
    range of 20,000Hz and
    beyond which cannot be
    perceived by the human
    ear.
    • Sound of various frequency;
    infrasonic, audible and ultrasonic
    sound – these sounds have a
    direct relationship to the
    frequency and amplitude but
    inversely related to wavelength of
    the sound waves.
    • Healthy young humans can hear sound waves produced by
    vibrations with frequencies between 20Hz and 20,000Hz.
    • As people age, their ability to hear the higher and lower
    frequencies of sound decreases.
    • The human ear is most sensitive to frequencies between
    1,000Hz and 4,000Hz.
    • Animals have ranges of hearing that help them catch prey
    or avoid predators. For example, elephants hear sounds as
    low as 15Hz.
