Ear Inquiry

STIRRUP- The ear has the smallest bone in the body called the stirrup. It is one of the three bones connected to your ear drum.
The three main parts of the ear is the outer ear, middle ear and the inner ear.
Sound travels through the ear at roughly 330 metres per second.
The fluid in your ear moves according to gravity.
Your ear is the part in the body that keeps you balanced.
The ear is a very important part in the body because if we didn’t have ears we wouldn’t be able to hear.  When we hear something it makes waves* in our ear which helps the sound travel through the outer ear into the middle ear. (*  a wave of compression going into the ear. )
The fluid in your ear goes into your mouth which makes saliva.
