Most commonly, air molecules do. More appropriately, when air molecules vibrate that is sound. Sometimes, however, other things can carry vibration which the human ear can pick up.
Under water there are no large air bubbles to carry sound, but water molecules can carry it just fine; even better than air, in fact (think of whale calls). Glass and wood are also excellent conductors of sound vibrations (think of how loud it would be if you had your ear up to a door when someone knocked on it).

What does sound carry?
Sound carries vibrations through a medium such as air, water, or solid materials. These vibrations are transmitted in the form of waves and can be heard by our ears. Different mediums can affect the speed and clarity with which sound travels.
What is the movement of sound from one location to another?
Sound moves through a medium, such as air, by creating vibrations. These vibrations cause particles in the medium to compress and expand, creating a wave that travels from the source of the sound to the listener. The sound wave carries the energy of the sound from one location to another.
What do vibrations have to do with sound?
Vibrations are essential for producing sound. When an object vibrates, it creates pressure waves in the air which our ears perceive as sound. The frequency of the vibrations determines the pitch of the sound, while the amplitude of the vibrations determines the loudness of the sound.
How are the vibrations in a quiet sound different to the vibrations in a loud sound?
In a quiet sound, the vibrations are small in amplitude and frequency, resulting in a soft and subtle sound. In contrast, a loud sound has vibrations with greater amplitude and frequency, creating a more intense and powerful sound.
How are vibrations waves and energy are related to sound?
Sound is a form of energy produced by vibrations traveling through a medium, such as air. These vibrations create sound waves that can be detected by the ear and interpreted as sound. The frequency of the vibrations determines the pitch of the sound, while the amplitude of the vibrations determines the volume.

Electrical vibrations into sound vibrations?
the cochlea convents vibrations into electrical sound
How do vibrations produce sound waves?
sound waves dont produce vibrations, vibrations are sound waves.
Can you make a sound with no vibrations?
No; sound comes from vibrations.
How sound relates to vibrations?
A sound creates vibrations
What structure carries the sensations caused by sound to the brain?
The cocheal contains receptor cells that convert sound vibrations into impulses that are sent to the brain.

Why does sound travel in vibrations?
Because sounds are formed by vibrations, therefore there is no sound without vibrations. Furthermore, there is no vibrations without air. Consequently, sound needs air to vibrate forming waves of sound.
How are the vibrations in a quiet sound different to the vibrations in a loud sound?
In a quiet sound, the vibrations are small in amplitude and frequency, resulting in a soft and subtle sound. In contrast, a loud sound has vibrations with greater amplitude and frequency, creating a more intense and powerful sound.

What vibrates when you talk?
You're sound box produces vibrations which is carried out through the air. The air carries it all the way to our ears.
