What structure picks up sound vibrations?
The malleus is the first of the three auditory ossicles (little bones) of the middle ear. The next on in line is the incus (anvil).tympanic side = malleus or hammermiddle = incus or anviloval window side = stapes or stirrup
What form when a source of energy causes a medium to vibrate?
Mechanical Waves
What type of energy causes other particles to vibrate?
Thermal energy causes particles to vibrate. When thermal energy is transferred to an object, its particles gain kinetic energy, causing them to move and vibrate.
Why does glass bend when heated?
Glass bends when heated because the heat causes the molecules in the glass to vibrate more rapidly, changing its structure. This change in structure leads to expansion, causing the glass to soften and bend. This effect is known as thermal expansion.
What forms when a source of energy causes a medium to vibrate?
When a source of energy causes a medium to vibrate, it creates sound waves. Sound waves are mechanical waves that travel through a medium by causing the particles of the medium to vibrate and transfer energy in the form of sound.
What structure vibrates the malleus?
The eardrum (tympanic membrane) vibrates in response to sound waves, which in turn causes the malleus (hammer) bone to vibrate. The malleus is connected to the eardrum and transfers these vibrations to the other ossicles in the middle ear, ultimately transmitting the sound to the inner ear for processing.
What is the order the auditory bones vibrate?
The auditory bones vibrate in the order of malleus (hammer), incus (anvil), and stapes (stirrup) when sound waves are transmitted through the middle ear.
WHAT IS THE FUNCTION OF THE EAR MALLEUS?
Sound waves cause the Tympanic Membrane (eardrum) to vibrate, which in turn causes the Malleus (hammer) to transmit those vibrations to the next tiny bone in the ear, called the Incus (anvil). The Incus, in turn, transmits those vibrations to the third small bone in the ear, called the Stapes (stirrup). The Stapes then transmits the vibrations to the membrane of the inner ear, where they can be communicated to the brain for processing and interpretation (hearing).

What causes molecules energy that causes them to vibrate?
Heat!
What causes the auditory ossicles to vibrate?
The sound waves, coming through the auditory canal, strike the tympanic membrane (eardrum).The eardrum vibrates because of the soundwaves.This vibration is picked up by the ossicles and transmitted through the middle ear to the oval window.Therefore it is the soundwaves causing the eardrum to vibrate that ultimately makes the ossicles vibrate.
How does conduction heat solids?
Heat energy from the source causes the particles to oscillate (vibrate) this chains and causes neighbouring particles to vibrate.

What causes the vocal cords to make sounds?
they vibrate..
What is the structure and fluids that vibrate in the pathway from the external auditory canal to the spiral organ of corti?
The pathway consists of the tympanic membrane, ossicles (malleus, incus, stapes), oval window, cochlea, and cochlear fluids (perilymph and endolymph). Sound waves cause the tympanic membrane and ossicles to vibrate, transmitting the vibrations to the oval window and cochlear fluids, which in turn stimulate the hair cells of the spiral organ of Corti.
Mechanical waves are created when a source of energy causes a medium to?
vibrate or oscillate. This vibration is then transferred through the medium, causing particles in the medium to also vibrate. This transfer of energy produces the mechanical wave.
