Why do you hear what you hear?

Sound is a natural phenomenon.

Hearing is a physiological detection of sound.

For humans, the ear channels sound in.

It stimulates nerves in the inner ear.

Different nerves are stimulated by different frequencies.

These nerves transmit their signals to the brain.

The brain interprets the nerve signals, comparing them to signals it has heard before or those that are instinctively recognized.

Why? Because the brain and the ear are made to work this way.
