The Ear


Your ears are in charge of collecting sounds, processing them, and sending sound signals to your brain .
And that's not all - your ears also help you keep your balance.
So if you bend over to pick up something, you won't fall down .

The ear is made up of three different sections:
- the outer ear,
- the middle ear,
- the inner ear.

These parts all work together so you can hear and process sounds.

"I have always thought it would be a blessing if each person could be blind and deaf for a few days during his early adult life.
Darkness would make him appreciate sight; silence would teach him the joys of sound"
