Advanced Description
This is is an experimental feature. Please report any issues.The word 'Ohr' is a German noun that translates to 'ear' in English. It refers to the organ of hearing and balance located on the sides of the head.
The human ear consists of three main parts: the outer ear, the middle ear, and the inner ear. The outer ear includes the visible part called the pinna and the ear canal. The middle ear contains the eardrum and three small bones called ossicles, which transmit sound vibrations from the eardrum to the inner ear. The inner ear houses the cochlea, which converts sound vibrations into electrical signals that are sent to the brain for interpretation.
In addition to its role in hearing, the ear also plays a crucial role in maintaining balance. The vestibular system, located in the inner ear, helps us maintain our equilibrium by detecting changes in head position and movement.
