An ear is an sensory organ of the body. It helps us to hear sound. The ear is composed of the external ear (which is visible) and the internal ear. The external ear or the pinna is a flap of cartilagenous skin that aids in the collection and direction of sound waves into the inner ear. The inner ear has several parts which is beyond the scope of this answer but the main parts are the cochlea, vestibule and the ear drum. Sound waves directed inwards fall on the ear drum and then are carried inwards in the form of vibrations that the cochlea and the vestibule conduct onwards to the brain through special auditory nerves and hence there is perception of speech.
