The eardrum receives the vibrations of the air.
the chochlea in the inner ear
the ear drum
That is where the vibrations in the air are turned into a nerve signal and sent to the brain.
These waves in the air are called Sound waves, waves that vibrate in the air and if your hearing is good these vibrations will vibrate our ear drums and cause us to hear them as noise or sound.
The tympanic membrane in the middle ear transforming sound waves into mechanical vibrations. These vibrations stimulate the inner ear.
No. Vibrations are changed into signals by the "hairs" (a part of nerve cells, not real hair) in the inner ear. The function of the bones of the middle ear is to change the low pressure, high amplitude sound waves into high pressure, low amplitude waves - for the inner ear to process.
The ear receives vibrations or sound waves in the air through the ear's opening and down the ear canal. These vibrations strike the eardrum, which then makes vibrations. These vibrations are passed to three bones in the middle ear and into the cochlea, which then translates the vibrations into sound.
Yes. If they didn't you wouldn't hear sound. Your ear picks up the vibrations it receives and interprets them as sounds.
the cochlea is a vital part in your inner ear that transforms vibrations coming from the oval window ( preceeding area of inner ear that receives vibrations) into electrochemical impulses and travel down the auditory nerve into the brain for processing.
You will have to use your finger on your ear to determine which part of the ear receives a stimulus
It doesn't process anything, it is a part of a system (eardrum, 3 bones of the middle ear, and a thin part of your skull) that converts vibrations in the air into vibrations in the fluids of your inner ear. Those you can hear.
The vibrations from the phone ringing travels through the air snot into the outer part of your ear

the ear drum
The eardrum
Vibrations through some medium ARE sound. Vibrations through the air are just one example. The air vibrates and when the vibrations hit human ear drums, they are heard.
The cochlea.
Sound, actually, is the vibration of air. The vibrations hit your ear drum in your ear.
