The pinna, also known as the outer ear, is responsible for collecting sound waves and directing them into the ear canal towards the eardrum. Its unique shape helps to enhance certain frequencies of sound, improving our ability to locate the direction of sounds. Additionally, the pinna plays a role in protecting the inner structures of the ear from debris and foreign objects.
