Back
- Sound waves funneled by pinna and external auditory canal onto tympanic membrane
- Pinna: Filters high-frequency sounds based on elevation of sound source and contributes to sound localization
- External auditory canal: Amplifies sound pressure 30-100x
- Tympanic membrane: Vibrates in response to sound waves; Vibration frequency is dependent on sound pitch, and vibration amplitude is dependent on loudness
