Dear students,
Let´s investigate a little bit more about the hear.
How much do you know about the ear? What´s the eardrum? Where is the cochlea?
Let´s complete the info in your notebook:
1. 1. When the eardrum vibrates, it makes the small bones inside the ear vibrate too.
1. 2. Sound waves go into
our ear and hit the eardrum. As a
result, the eardrum vibrates.
1. 3. The cochlea detects the vibrations and
produces nerve impulses. The auditory
nerve transmits these impulses to the brain. Then, the brain interprets the
information.
Looking after our hearing:
The wax in our
ears protects our inner ear from the bacteria, dirt and water. It´s important
not to remove this wax because it helps to keep our ears healthy.
Very loud noises
can cause permanent damage to our eardrums. Turn the volume down when you use headphones.
Stay away from very noise places, or use ear protection to prevent hearing
damage.
Create a mindmap:
Can you describe the three steps to hear?
What happens when the eardrum vibrates?
What does the cochlea detect? what does it produce?
What does auditory nerve do?
What does the wax do in our ears?
Activity. Complete the sentences in your notebook.
