Question

The ear canal is also called Auditory Meatus.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

The ear canal is also called Auditory Meatus. The ceruminous glands (wax producing) and sebaceous glands (oil producing), help to keep the ear canal lubricated to prevent dust and other particles from entering into the ear canal. A thin layer, called tympanum or eardrum is present at the end of the auditory meatus.
