For the most part the Ear does not contain any fluid, the Outer and Middle Ear are air filled this is why we have the pharyngotympanic tube. The inner ear however is very complicated and difficult to explain. It has two Labyrinths, the Bony Labyrinth and, suspended within the bony labyrinth, the Memranous Labarynth. These labyrinths make up the shapes most people know as the Cochlea and the Semi-Circular Canals (both labyrinth types are present in each). The membranous labarynth contains a fluid called Endolymph and the Bony cavity contains a similar fluid called Perilymph.

Which structure of the human ear is filled with fluid and lined with tiny hair lines?
Cochlea i think
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.
What happens to the mastoid when the middle ear retains fluid?
The mastoid is connected with the middle ear, so that when there is a collection of fluid in the middle ear, there is usually also a slight collection of fluid within the airspaces of the mastoid.
What part of the ear filled with fluid?

What organs of the body involved in the sense of balance?

Where in the human body can you find the cochlea?
The cochlea is located at the end of the ear canal - inside the ear. It contains fluid and microscopic hairs (cilia). Sound waves received by the ear causes movement of the cilia - which is interpreted by the brain.
What is the common name of the tympanic membrane?
The common name for Tympanic Membrane in Human Category is Ear Drum.
In the human body field what is the fluid perilymph?
Perilymph is a fluid present in the scala vestibuli and scala tympani which are the perilymph compartments of the inner ear. It has the same ionic concentration as the extracellular fluid present in the entire body
Why the bones in the human ear have been given their names?
Every bone has a name
What is the name of the fluid that fills the spaces between tissue cells in the human body?
Interstitial fluid
What cavity of the inner ear is filled with fluid?
