How Do We Hear
Hearing depends on a series of complex steps that change sound waves in the air into electrical signals. Our auditory nerve then carries these signals to the brain. Sound waves enter the outer ear and travel through a narrow passageway called the ear canal, which leads to the eardrum.
This animated video illustrates how sounds travel from the ear to the brain, where they are interpreted and understood. Also available: How Do We Hear?, a step-by-step explanation.
