Question

Given below is a diagrammatic representation of a part of the human ear.​

(ii) Which parts of the ear shown here are complete.

Answer 1

• All parts of the middle ear are completely shown in the diagram. ​

• The ear ossicles (hammer, anvil, stirrup), the oval window, the eustachian tube and the round window comprises all the parts of the middle ear.​

• The auditory canal and ear drum are parts of the external ear but do not comprise the entire external ear as pinna is absent here.​

• So only the middle ear is shown completely.
