The visible or external part of the ear has more of an action like funnel‚ amplifying sound waves to be captured and easily directed in the ear canal. The Pinna has an interesting role allowing the canal to receive low sound frequencies by reflecting off of the Pinna. The

Recognition of this phenomenon can be of importance in schools‚ The outer ear is funnel-shaped and serves as a sound-gathering input device for the auditory system. Sound energy travels through the auditory canal (outer ear) and sets in motion the components of the middle ear‚ comprising the eardrum‚ hammer‚ anvil‚ and stirrup. The stirrup acts as a piston to transmit vibrations into the fluid of the inner ear. The motion of this fluid causes movement of hair cells in
