the correct answer is : ear canal or you could just write canal if you are doing a sheet/ homework sheet called: 8LD(4) Ear diagram- then write ear canal, if not then choose between; ear canal and canal

How does the ear canal transmit sound to the eardrum?

The ear canal collects sound waves and funnels them towards the eardrum, which vibrates in response to the sound waves. These vibrations are then transmitted to the tiny bones in the middle ear, which amplify the sound and send it to the inner ear for processing.


what part of the ear collects sounds in the environment?

Sound waves are 'collected' by the ear drum. This is a film stretched across the ear canal. Much like it's namesake, it responds to sound waves by vibrating. These vibrations are read as electrical signals by your nerves, and it is transmitted to brain as impulses.


How does the external auditory canal transmit sound waves to the inner ear?

The external auditory canal collects sound waves and funnels them towards the eardrum. The eardrum vibrates in response to the sound waves, which then transmit the vibrations to the three small bones in the middle ear. These bones amplify the vibrations and send them to the cochlea in the inner ear, where they are converted into electrical signals that are sent to the brain for interpretation.


What does the pinna in the ear do?

The pinna acts as a funnel for sound directing important information toward the earcanal and eventually the eardrum. The pinna also filters sound assisting in the localization of sounds both horizontally and vertically.


Which part of the ear traps sound?

The outer ear, specifically the ear canal and the eardrum (tympanic membrane), traps and funnels sound waves towards the middle ear for processing.

The region of the ear that funnels sounds is called the Pinna. The Pinna collects sounds and acts like a funnel.


What is the the function of the outer ear?

The outer ear collects and funnels sound waves to the eardrum, where vibrations are carried into the middle ear.

Energy waves are directed down the ear canal to the eardrum by the?

Energy waves are directed down the ear canal to the eardrum by the outer ear, specifically the pinna and ear canal. The pinna collects sound waves and funnels them into the ear canal, where they travel to the eardrum causing it to vibrate and transmit sound signals to the inner ear.


What parts of the human body receives sound?

The ear is the primary part of the human body that receives sound. Specifically, the outer ear collects sound waves and funnels them into the ear canal, where they eventually reach the eardrum, leading to the auditory system.

How does the outer ear pass sound vibrations to the middle ear?

The outer ear collects sound waves and funnels them through the ear canal to the eardrum. The eardrum vibrates in response to the sound waves, which then transmit these vibrations to the middle ear through the three small bones called the ossicles.

How does sound get from sources to your ear?

The fleshy part of the outer ear collects the sounds and pulls them in to the canal and closer to the ear drum where they bounce off and reflect the sound back to the part of the brain that tells you ears to hear.
