Mechanism of Hearing
Sound waves 
Tympanic membrane 
Vibrations 
Ear ossicles (malleus, incus and stapes). The vibrations are passed through the oval window on to the fluid of counter where they generate waves which travel to Scala vestibuli 
Reissner’s membrane 
Scala media 
Tectorial membrane is vibrated 
Tectorial membrane touches the hair cells organ of corti. As a result, nerve impulses are generated in the afferent neurons.
These impulses are carried by the afferent nerve fibres through the auditory nerve to the auditory nerve to the cortex in the temporal lobe of the cerebral hemisphere of the brain where the impulses are analysed and the sound is recognised. Ear also performs the function of balancing (equilibrium)
