Organizing and summarizing search results for youThe process of how humans hear sound involves the following steps:- Sound waves enter the outer ear (pinna or auricle).
- Sound moves through the middle ear, where the eardrum vibrates and sends vibrations to three tiny bones (malleus, incus, and stapes).
- Sound moves through the inner ear (cochlea), where tiny hair-like cells connected to the acoustic nerve convert energy vibrations into nerve impulses.
- The brain interprets these impulses to identify what you are hearing.
