Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Sound waves are amplified in the middle ear by the three small bones (ossicles) - the malleus, incus, and stapes. These bones transmit the vibrations of the eardrum to the inner ear. The inner ear is responsible for transducing these vibrations into electrical signals that are sent to the brain for processing, which is why it is the correct choice for the second part of the question.
