Stirrup & Anvil & Hammer
Right on! Truer words were never written.
When an object vibrates, it forces the neighbouring particles of the medium to vibrate. These vibrating particles then force the particles adjacent to them to vibrate. In this way, vibrations produced by an object are transferred from one particle to another till it reaches the ear.
Your eardrum will vibrate and transfer the sound vibrations to three tiny bones in the middle ear, which carry the vibrations to the cochlea of the inner ear, where they are transformed into nerve impulses.
The pressure wave in the air enters the ear canal and vibrates the tympanic membrane (the ear drum) the ear drum vibrates the malleus (hammer), the incus (anvil) and the stappes (stirrup) in the middle ear. These bonds vibrate the oval window (into the cochlea) and the oval window produces a pressure wave in the fluid in the inner ear.
Sound is made when air particles vibrate. So when you click your fingers, you're causing the air particles around your finger to vibrate, causing the noise you hear. The noise you hear is actually a mixture of 2 sounds; the sound of your middle finger sliding off your thumb, and also the sound of your middle finger hitting your hand.

The sound waves, coming through the auditory canal, strike the tympanic membrane (eardrum).The eardrum vibrates because of the soundwaves.This vibration is picked up by the ossicles and transmitted through the middle ear to the oval window.Therefore it is the soundwaves causing the eardrum to vibrate that ultimately makes the ossicles vibrate.
The sound waves come through the auditory canal and hit the eardrum (or tympanic membrane). The eardrum is connected to the 3 ossicles of the middle ear: the hammer, anvil and stirrup (or malleus, incus and stapes). The eardrum vibrates the hammer, the hammer vibrates the anvil, the anvil vibrates the stirrup and the stirrup vibrates the cochlea in the inner ear which has hair-like nerve endings called cilia that move when the cochlea vibrates. The auditory nerve sends the vibrations to the brain to be interpreted. That's how we hear! :)
The function of the eardrum in the middle ear is to vibrate sound waves into the year. It transmits sound from the environment into the ossicles found in the middle ear.
There is a ear drum placed between external and internal ear. It is the most prominent structure that vibrates to produce sound. Then the three tiny bones in the middle ear also vibrate. Then the oval and round windows also vibrate. Then the hair cells in the inner ear also vibrate. The fluid that is present in the cochlea also vibrates.
The membrane that vibrates and transmits the vibrations is called the tympanic membrane or the eardrum. It is the divider between the external and middle chambers of the ear.
When an object vibrates, it forces the neighbouring particles of the medium to vibrate. These vibrating particles then force the particles adjacent to them to vibrate. In this way, vibrations produced by an object are transferred from one particle to another till it reaches the ear.
it's like a eardrum because in the middle air, these waves make the eardrum vibrate. The vibration of the eardrum move three tiny bones called the hammer, the anvil, and the stirrup.
The inner ear is a snail-shaped structure called the cochlea, which is filled with fluid. When the oval window vibrates, it causes the fluid in the cochlea to vibrate. This fluid surrounds a membrane running through the middle of the cochlea called the basilar membrane. The answer of your question is the Basilar Membrane.
sound vibrate the eardrum a lightly streched membrane that is the entrance to the middle ear
The auditory ossicles (malleus, incus and stapes) in the middle ear are the smallest bones. They vibrate in response to the tympanic membrane and carry sound and can amplify or damp it down. This is picked up by the auditory nerve and interpreted by the brain.
Sound waves hit the eardrum. The eardrum vibrates in response to the sound waves. These sound vibrations are amplified and transmitted by the auditory ossicles of the middle ear to the inner ear where they are changed into electrical energy and sent to the brain for interpretation.
Your eardrum will vibrate and transfer the sound vibrations to three tiny bones in the middle ear, which carry the vibrations to the cochlea of the inner ear, where they are transformed into nerve impulses.
