vibrations

78
Q

sound vibrations beat against the…

A

eardrum

79

A

ossicles

80
Q

the ossicles move…

A

internal fluid against the membrane

81
Q

Steps of sound vibrations

A
  1. ) vibrations beat against the eardrum
  2. ) this pushes the ossicles that move internal fluid against the membrane

Q

Steps of sound

A
