- - - - Oval Window
        
        Scala Vestibuli
        
        Conducts sound vibrations into the Cochlear Duct
        
        Cochlear Duct
        
        Organ of Corti- Tiny hairs bend to vibrations and release neurotransmitters
        
        Pathway to the Brain
        
        Electric signals are send as the hairs bend

        Scala Tympani :
        
        Round Window/Tympanic Cavity
        
        Sound escapes
        
        Vibrations escape to the Tympanic Cavity
        
        Vestibluocochlear Nerve- Sends nerve impulses to auditory cortex
        
        Vibrations are sent through the window and into the fluid filled cavity
    - - Malleus- Vibrates in unison to the Tympanic Membrane
      - Incus- Passes and amplifies the vibrations to the Stapes
      - Stapes- Like a piston sends vibrations into the Oval Window
  - - - Tympanic Membrane
        
        Vibrates in response to sound waves
      - Sound travels through the meatus til it hits the Tympanic Membrane
