How does a person hear sound?

FAQ
The ear is the organ used to detect sound in humans and some animals. The ear consists of three major sections: the outer ear, middle ear, and inner ear. The external section of the ear consists of a cartilage flap called the pinna. The pinna’s size and shape are used as a transformer to match the impedance of the sound wave entering the ear canal by gradually funneling the wave’s sound energy into the ear.
