Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

All three structures - external ear, middle ear, and inner ear - are involved in both hearing and equilibrium. The external ear collects sound waves and funnels them towards the middle ear. In the middle ear, the sound waves are amplified and transmitted to the inner ear. Within the inner ear, there are structures called the cochlea (responsible for hearing) and the vestibular system (responsible for equilibrium). Therefore, all options - A, B, and C - are correct, making D the best choice.
