Match the roles of the ear to the correct structure and location of the structure.
Outer Ear: captures and funnels sound to the auditory canal and to the tympanic membrane, which vibrates in response to the sound waves. Middle Ear: ossicles of the middle ear amplify the vibrations of the tympanic membrane and transmit these vibrations to the oval window. eustachian tube equalizes pressure of the middle ear. round window releases the pressure from the fluid waves of the inner ear. Inner Ear: cochlea plays a role in the transduction of the vibrations and fluid waves caused by the oval window into nerve impulses that travel to the CNS for interpretation vestibular apparatus plays a role in balance and equilibrium.

-distance is determined by the timing of arrival of sound waves to each ear. -sounds directly in front of, behind or above are hard to differentiate. -Sensorineural hearing loss is any abnormality of damage in the inner ear or along the pathway to the brain or in the brain hearing processing Conductive hearing loss is any abnormality in the outer or middle ear that causes blockage of sound waves or vibration transmission to the oval window Distance is determined by the timing of arrival of sound waves to each ear. ~Sounds directly behind or above you will arrive at each ear at the same time. ~This is interpreted by the brain as equal loudness and therefore it is difficult to localize where it came from. Sensorineural hearing loss any abnormality of damage in the inner ear or along the pathway to the brain or in the brain hearing processing Conductive hearing loss any abnormality in the outer or middle ear that causes blockage of sound waves or vibration transmission to the oval window
Select all of the following that are true regarding pitch and volume
-pitch and volume are detected by the inner ear -Pitch is determined by the frequency of sound waves that enter the ear -Loudness is determined by the amplitude of the sound waves entering the ear. Loudness is determined by the amplitude of the sound waves entering the ear. ~Pitch: determined by the frequency of sound waves that enter the ear. Different frequencies will vibrate the basilar membrane in different areas due to the varying thickness of the basilar membrane. only the hair cells that area are moved and thus the brain interprets this as a particular pitch. ~Loudness: determined by the amplitude of the sound waves entering the ear. The larger the amplitude, the more the basilar moves up and down, stimulating more hair cells. The brain interprets this as louder. The smaller the amplitude, the basilar moves up and down less, stimulating less of hair cells. The brain interprets this as quieter.
