Place the following events in sequence:

A) Your eardrum begins vibrating

B) Electrical impulses travel along nerve fibers

C) The hammer, anvil, and stirrup begin moving

Answer 1

C A B

First the hammer, anvil and stirrup will begin to move which will cause vibrations in the air.

The vibrations of your eardrum will be carried by the nerve fibers to your brain to be translated into sound.
