Outer ear
The ______ protects the ear, collects sounds, and channels them to the middle ear .
Outer ear
It is the outside of your ear and it collects sounds
The region of the ear that funnels sounds is called the Pinna. The Pinna collects sounds and acts like a funnel.
We hear by molucles bumping into each other which creates sound waves from vibration, which then travels into our ears...its all complicated after that :P xx
the pinna is like an ear trumpet that funnels sounds into the ear canal..
Sounds would reach your ear, but sound all distorted. Like holding a seashell to your ear. So not much effect.

The pinna (external ear) collects the sound and channels the sound into the ear canal.
The region of the ear that funnels sounds is called the Pinna. The Pinna collects sounds and acts like a funnel.
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.
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.
Well, ear defenders absorbs the sound from going to your ear, if you don't wear ear defenders when your working in loud noises your ear can be damage.
The outer ear collects and funnels sound waves to the eardrum, where vibrations are carried into the middle ear.
The pinna of the ear collects sound waves. This is the part you see on the side of the head.
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.
