When a sound wave strikes the eardrum and passes along the hammer, anvil and stirrup (the tiny bones in your ear) the stirrup bone strikes a little membrane covered window that sloshes the fluid back and forth (the fluid helps pass along the vibrations). The sloshing stimulates the tiny hair cells which convert the vibrations into nerve impulses. The impulses travel along to the brain which interprets the impulses as sound.

Can you see fluid in ear?
The fluids in the ear are the very way in which we hear. Hearing is broken down when sound waves (noise) enters through the ear and structure like the anvil and hammer. These structures vibrate and send vibrations down to a fluid filled pool that vibrates the fluid. The vibrating waves of the fluid are intercepted by microscopic hairs called cilia (most likely that is the scientific name). These cilia read and transform these vibrations into neurological signals that are then sent to the brain and interpreted.
