Ear 2

Ear 2

The eardrum, separates the auditory canal from the middle ear. The middle ear is a tiny cavity containing the three bones of the ear: the malleus or hammer, the incus or anvil and the stapes or stirrup. The inner ear is very complex. It has two main parts, the bony labyrinth and the membranous labyrinth. The inner ear also contains the structures which help with equilibrium or balance. [CG] {NR}
