... The ear is made up of three parts: the outer ear, the middle ear, and the inner ear. The outer ear consists of the auricle (pinna) and the external auditory canal. The middle ear consists of the tympanic membrane (eardrum), the ossicles (malleus, incus and stapes), and the Eustachian tube. The inner ...
