The ear has three major parts:
1. Inner ear- contains the eardrum, 3 small bones namely hammer, anvil, stirrup (it's not incus) the auditory nerve, cochlea
2. middle ear- contains eardrum. because the eardrum is actually at the middle ear. semicircularcanal, eustachian tube
3. outer ear- you can see your pinna and earcanal from the outer part.
where is the nerves
Nose and ear hairs act as a first line of defense against pathogens by trapping dust, allergens, and microorganisms that enter the respiratory and auditory systems. The fine hairs, known as cilia in the nose, work alongside mucus to capture and expel these particles, preventing them from reaching deeper into the body. This filtering mechanism helps reduce the risk of infections and maintain overall respiratory health. Additionally, the hairs in the ear help prevent foreign objects and pathogens from entering the ear canal.
The tiny hairs in the ear, called stereocilia, are responsible for detecting sound waves and converting them into electrical signals. These signals are then sent to the brain for processing and interpretation, allowing us to hear and sense different sounds in our environment.
Those hairs are called mustache.
The "hairs" inside an ear of corn are corn silk.
The ear contains alot of what help's us hear sounds. There are micro hairs that vibrate and carry the vibration to nerves and cells which allows us to hear.Ears have tine blood vessles and wax as a protector for the ear drum.
they are a part of a cell called ciliated cells the hairs are called cilia
The hairs in your ear are located in the cochlea, which is a spiral-shaped structure in the inner ear. These hairs help to detect sound vibrations and send signals to the brain for processing.
Trim the ear hair frequently.
Yes, ear hairs help to protect the ear canal and enhance the ability to hear by capturing and directing sound waves towards the eardrum.
Ear hairs help to trap dust, dirt, and other particles from entering the ear canal. They also help to protect the delicate structures inside the ear, such as the eardrum, from damage by foreign objects. Additionally, ear hairs can help in detecting sound vibrations and aiding in spatial awareness.
Tiny hairs called cilia are found in the inner ear and are responsible for detecting sound waves and sending signals to the brain for processing. In the nose, tiny hairs called olfactory cilia help detect and transmit signals about different scents to the brain for interpretation.
The ear canal is normally skin-colored and is covered with tiny hairs

Balance
The whole ear gathers sound. Deep inside there are bone tubes (called Inner Ear) with liquid and hair looking things inside (Hair cells). Sound makes the water and hairs move. The hairs send a signal to the brain. The brain puts it together so we can understand sounds and music.
A group of hairs is called a hank or a tress.
Sound vibrates the inner ear to stimulate hairs in the cochlear.
