Question

Choose the INCORRECT statement regarding human ear.​

• A. The outer part of ear consists of “pinna”.​
• B. Eardrum is a part of the inner ear.​
• C. The inner part of ear has a coiled tube ​called “cochlea”.​
• D. The middle part of ear has three ​small bones.​

Answer 1

The correct option is B Eardrum is a part of the inner ear.​

The cochlea is a part of the inner ear involved in hearing. It is a coiled tube or spiral-shaped cavity.
The middle part of the ear has three small bones, which amplify the vibrations coming from the eardrum.
The outer part of the ear consists of “pinna”, which collects the sound.
The statement: "Eardrum is a part of the inner ear." is not correct, as the eardrum is a part of the middle ear.
