Give a brief account of mechanism of hearing

The Mechanism of hearing:

The outer ear canal collects sound waves that pass through the outer ear canal to the eardrum.

This causes the ear to move. This vibration is transmitted from the eardrum to the malleus, incuse and middle ear stapes causing an increase in vibration frequency.

Excessive vibration is transmitted to the cochlea of ​​the inner ear through an oval window.

This vibration in the cochlea endolymph causes vibration caused by the basilar membrane, which penetrates causing the nerve hairs of the cortial organ to vibrate.

The receptor hair cells force themselves against the tectorial membrane which converts sound energy into an influence or force of action.

This nerve spray is transmitted to the nerve part of the brain, where the pressure is tested and analyzed to make sound visible.
