Question

______are small bones in the middle ear that transfer sound waves to the inner ear.

Answer 1

As sound waves vibrate the tympanic membrane (eardrum), it in turn moves the nearest ossicle, the malleus, to which it is attached. The malleus then transmits the vibrations, via the incus, to the stapes, and so ultimately to the membrane of the fenestra ovalis, the opening to the vestibule of the inner ear

Answer 2

Ossicles are small bones in the middle ear that transfer sound waves to the inner ear.
