the Science of Hearing
... The Mechanics of Hearing We hear through air conduction and bone conduction. Air conduction occurs as sound passes through the ear canal to the eardrum. The sound then vibrates the eardrum and these vibrations are transferred to the cochlea, via the three tiny bones of the middle ear called the mall ...

Ear
The ear is the organ that detects sound. It not only receives sound, but also aids in balance and body position. The ear is part of the auditory system.Often the entire organ is considered the ear, though it may also be considered just the visible portion. In most mammals, the visible ear is a flap of tissue that is also called the pinna (or auricle in humans) and is the first of many steps in hearing. Vertebrates have a pair of ears placed somewhat symmetrically on opposite sides of the head. This arrangement aids in the ability to localize sound sources.
