Question

Which of the following is matched correctly?

• A. Pinna - outer ear
• B. Ear ossicle - Middle ear
• C. Cochlea - Inner ear
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is D All of the above

Pinna is the part of the outer ear. It has fine hair and secretes glands. It collects sound waves.
Middle ear constitutes three ear ossicles called malleus, incus and stapes. They amplify sound waves.
Cochlea is part of the inner ear. It contains the organ of Corti, the organ for hearing. It consists of tiny hair cells that line the cochlea. These cells translate vibrations into electrical impulses that are carried to the brain by sensory nerves.
