Which region of the ear gathers information and funnels sound

the outer ear

the inner ear

the middle ear

the cochlea

The outer ear is the part of the ear that takes up the sound waves and funnels them into the canal.

Option A

Explanation:

The outer ear is a region of the ear that gathers the information and then funnels the sound into the middle ear. The phrase “funnels the sound” means that the waves of sound are converted into vibration.

These vibrations are then changed as the nerve signals by cochlea present in the inner ear. These nerve signals are read by the brain and the information is received.
