Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The pinna is not one of the ossicles - it is the visible part of the outer ear that collects and directs sound waves towards the ear canal. The ossicles are the three tiny bones in the middle ear that transfer sound vibrations from the eardrum to the inner ear. The ossicles are the hammer (malleus), anvil (incus), and stirrup (stapes).
