ossicles
semicircular canals
eardrum
cochlea
organ of corti
The ossicles are the three bones (malleus, incus, stapes) in the middle ear that vibrate in response to eardrum vibrations. Semicircular canals are for balance (not sound - vibration transmission). The eardrum itself vibrates but is not the three - bone structure. The cochlea is in the inner ear (converts vibrations to neural signals). The organ of Corti is part of the cochlea (has hair cells for hearing).
