How Hearing Works - Journey of Sound to the Brain

The video explains the process of hearing, starting with sound waves generated by vocal cords. These waves travel through the ear, interacting with structures like the pinna, tympanic membrane, and ossicles. The vibrations reach the cochlea, where fluid movement stimulates the basilar membrane. Depending on sound frequency, different parts of the membrane vibrate, activating hair cells that send signals to the brain. The brain interprets these signals, allowing us to perceive sound. The video highlights the intricate anatomy and function of the ear and brain in hearing.
