The inner ear transforms the vibration received by the eardrum into electrical signals and sends them to the brain;that’s how we hear sounds, voices, music, everything. This part of the ear is not cartilage, like the external ear, but a bony structure that contains different fluids which, by their movement, stimulate the nerve cells.

This part of the ear is also responsible for us keeping our balance.
