6 walls,3 ossicles,eustachian tube
You have external ear, middle ear and the internal ear. You have the auricle and the ear canal is there in the external ear. Then you have a ear drum, that separates external ear from the middle ear. In the middle ear, you have three tiny bones. Eustachian canal is there in the middle ear. Then you have oval and round window to separate the middle ear from internal ear. In the internal ear, you have vestibulocochlear apparatus and the vestbulocochlear nerve is there.
The eustacean tubes are what allow your middle ear to equalize to atmospheric pressure. They connect your ear to your throat.
The middle ear & the nasopharynx

The ear drums are responsible from transferring sound waves from the outer ear to the middle ear. It vibrates in response to these waves.
The ear drums are responsible from transferring sound waves from the outer ear to the middle ear. It vibrates in response to these waves.
The cochlea is located in the inner ear, in contact with the latter part of the 3 small bone structures that constitute the middle ear (the stirrup, hammer and anvil.)
Otoplasty is not done to correct hearing difficulties related to the structures of the middle and inner ear.
Middle ear: amplify & transmit sound vibrations from tympanic membrane to oval window. Inner ear: to covert the sound vibrations into electrical energy and maintain equilibrium.
The function of the Eustachian tube is to help equalize pressure on either side of the eardrum. It connects the middle ear to the nasopharynx which is the area of the upper throat behind the nose.
The ears help with balance. The structures of the ear that help with keeping an equilibrium is the inner ear. The inner ear is responsible for hearing and balance.
