Yes it does :)
the sound waves travels to this and turns to fluids. Then it gets transmit to the brain.
The auditory canal connects the outer ear to the tympanic membrane.
The auditory canal is lined with sebaceous or ceruminous glands
He had an infection in his auditory canal
If you had an auditory canal (a hole in the side of your head that you hear through), then yes. The ear only amplifies sound into the auditory canal's passageway. But with no auditory canal, then no, stupid, you couldn't.
The auditory canal is your inner ear - the part inside your cranium. Patent means open. A widely patent auditory canal would be one that is especially wide/open/large.
No. The 'message' is carried by the auditory nerve to the brain.
I can only tell you what IS included in the auditory ossicles:The 3 auditory ossicles are "little bones" found in the middle ear. They are the smallest bones in the human body, and each one has its own name:tympanic side = malleus or hammermiddle = incus or anviloval window side = stapes or stirrup
Basically, the auditory canal links the outer ear to the ear drum. It carries the vibrations from outer ear to the inner ear.
The outer ear directs sound vibrations through the auditory canal to the eardrum, which is stretched across the end of the auditory canal and which transmits sound vibrations to the middle ear. There a chain of three tiny bones conducts the vibrations to the inner ear. Fluid inside the cochlea of the inner ear stimulates sensory hairs; these in turn initiate the nerve impulses that travel along the auditory nerve to the brain.
