They help us with hearing, and balance. They serve as great tools for one of the humans amazing 5 senses...... with hearing they help as filttering cups, you could say. Your ears... the pinna(outer part) funnels sound into the external auditory canal, a short tube that ends at the eardrum(tympanic membrane) where the sound comes together and you then hear it. Have you ever cupped your hand behind your ear? notice how everything is louder and you can hear much more?! Think of your ears as your hand, and what your hand was doing for your ears is what your ear does for you...... with balance that's what your equilibrium in your inner ear is for....The fluid-filled semicircular canals (labyrinth) attach to the spiral-shaped cochlea and nerves in the inner ear. They send information on balance and head position to the brain. The eustachian (auditory) tube drains fluid from the middle ear into the throat (pharynx) behind the nose.
