What takes sound waves from the inner ear to the brain?
Sound travels in waves. Our ears pick up these waves and funnel them to the eardrum. The eardrum interprets them as vibrations. These vibrations pass through the eardrum, into the inner ear via the hammer, anvil, and stirrup bones. This causes fluid in the inner ear to bend tiny hairs which convert the vibrations into nerve impulses. The auditory nerve then sends the signals to the brain, which converts them again into the sound of what is heard.
