Chapter 43, Problem 2COQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: The way by which the structures of the mammalian ear are adapted to detect and distinguish different frequencies of sound.
Introduction: Ears are the auditory organ of the mammals. It consists of three compartments: the outer ear (only visible part), middle ear, and the inner ear. The outer ear helps in gathering of sound waves from the surrounding environment and sends it to the other parts of ear.
