प्रश्न
Describe the structure and function of the human ear?
उत्तर
- The outer and visible part of the human ear is called pinata (curved in shape).
- It is specially designed to gather sound from the environment, which then reaches the eardrum (tympanic membrane) through the ear canal.
- When the sound wave strikes the drum, the vesicles move inward and outward to create the vibrations.
- These vibrations are then picked up by special types of cells in the inner ear. From the inner ear, the vibrations are sent to the brain in the form of signals.
- The brain perceives these signals as sounds.
