The ear -- specifically, the back of the eardrum or tympanic membrane
What problems will occur if auditory tubes do not function well in a child?
Auditory tube or Eustachian tube connect the middle aer cavity to the pharynx. It helps in regulating the pressure in the middle ear. If it does not function well, then the ear drum can be damaged or get perforated with sound of high intensity. It can easily get choked in upper respiratory tract infection, leading to otitis media frequently.
What are the parts the human ear?
Ear flap, Outer Ear, Hammer, Ear Canal, Eardrum, Anvil, Stirrup, Inner Ear, Auditory Nerve, Cochlea, Eustachian Tube
What is the eustachian tube and where is it located at?
The Eustachian tube is a passageway which connects middle ear to nasopharynx (throat).It's function is to equalize pressure on both sides of the tympanic membrane, which is necessary for proper hearing.
What connects the middle ear to the throat helps equalize middle ear pressure?
Eustachian tube which runs to your nose. I believe the correct answer is the Pharyngotympanic (auditory) tube
What is the passage between the nasopharynx and middle ear called?
eustation tubes also known as pharyngotympanic or auditory tube
Channel between the middle ear and the nasopharynx?
The answer is the auditory (Eustacean) tube.
What makes the air pressure in the middle and outer ear equal?
pharyngotympanic or auditory tube (formerly known as the eustachian tube)
What part of the ear is not related to hearing?
Eustachian tube or Auditory tube
What tubes open into the nasopharynx?
EUSTACHIAN TUBE or auditary tube.
Connects the middle ear with the pharynx?
Dorsally, the neck contains the esophagus and the ventral to the esophagus is the larynx, which leads to the trachea. The esophagus is a flexible muscular tube connecting the pharynx to the stomach. Meanwhile, air moves from the larynx to the trachea to the lungs when you inhale, and the from the lungs to the trachea to the larynx when you exhale.
What equalizes air pressure in respiratory system?
The auditory (eustachian) tube
What keeps pressure equal on both sides of the eardrums?
eustachian tube
What is the function of the tube that leads from the middle ear to the throat?
The Eustachian joins the ear to the throat
What are the names of the tubes that leads to the ears for frogs?
Eustachian tube.
What is the medical term meaning inflammation of the nose and eustachian tubes?
Salpingostenosis is the medical term meaning abnormal narrowing of the eustachian tube. The breakdown is salpingo- (tube - usually eustachian or fallopian) and -stenosis (abnormal narrowing).
