In humans, the ear is described as having three parts: the outer ear, the middle ear and the inner ear. The outer ear consists of the auricle, the visible outer part, and the ear canal. The middle ear includes the tympanic cavity and the three ossicles.
Human ear, organ of hearing and equilibrium that detects and analyzes sound by transduction and maintains the sense of balance. Anatomically, the ear has three distinguishable parts: the outer, middle, and inner ear.
Your outer ear and middle ear are separated by your eardrum, and your inner ear houses the cochlea, vestibular nerve and semicircular canals (fluid-filled spaces involved in balance and hearing).
Found in humans and many other vertebrates, the ear includes structures both visible externally and hidden deep within the skull. These structures collect sound, convert it into electrical signals, and help regulate spatial orientation.
