The eardrum is the first thing that vibrates in response to vibrating air or "sound".
The cochlea is the last step in the process, and instead of vibrating it is filled with fluid that moves in response to vibration on a small window on the side. This moves the cochlear fluid and then is transferred to the brain through small hairs inside the organ.
Three tiny bones (Malleus, Incus, and Stapes) transfer the vibration from the eardrum to the cochlea.
