9 Worksheet for Sound & Hearing Internal Structure of the Human Ear Pinna the outer portion of the external ear: sound travels through the outer ear to the ear canal. Auditory Canal the open passage through which sound waves travel to the middle ear. Eardrum a taut, circular piece of skin that vibrates when hit by sound waves. Malleus (Hammer), Incus (Anvil), Stapes (Stirrup) tiny bones that vibrate to amplify sound waves. These are the smallest bones in the body. Eustachian Tube the passageway that connects the ear to the back of the nose to maintain equal air pressure on both sides of the eardrum. Cochlea coiled, fluid-filled structure of the inner ear that contains hair cells called cilia. Cilia sway in response to sound waves, transmitting signals toward the brain. Semicircular Canals fluid-filled structures in the inner ear that detect movement and function as balance organs. Auditory Nerve bundle of nerve cells that carry signals from the sensory fibers to the brain. Read the above passage thoroughly and answer the following questions: Q1. Where is the malleus found? (middle ear) Q2 Q3 Q4 Q5 Q6 Where can cilia be found? (cochlea) What's the most important part of the ear for maintaining balance? (semicircular canal) What structures vibrate in response to sound waves? (eardrum, incus) Our ears "pop" on airplanes because of pressure changes. What structure makes it possible for the pressure inside our ears to return to normal? (eustachian tube) What structure transmits sound signals to the brain? (auditory nerve) The City School /PAF Chapter / Prep Section / Worksheet for Intervention Class /Science/Class 8 Page 9 of 10

10 Starter activity for Sound & Hearing #1 Demonstrate how the eardrum works with this simple activity. Have students stretch plastic wrap tightly over the opening of a large bowl or pot and sprinkle a teaspoon of rice over the plastic. Ask students to clap their hands close to the plastic wrap. They may also try to create louder noises (such as banging a metal cookie sheet or pan). What happens to the rice? #2 Explain that sounds travel in waves. Those waves make the plastic wrap vibrate, similar to the way that your eardrum vibrates in response to sound. The rice "jumps" when the plastic wrap vibrates. Like the rice, the tiny bones of the middle ear move in response to vibrations in the eardrum. #3 Tell students that they will begin putting together their ear accordion models. The first step is cutting the three pieces of paper along the black lines. Your students will then tape or glue the pieces together to make one strip (III.#1). Afterward, the students should fold the paper like an accordion along the dotted lines so that the outer ear is at the top.
