How Does Hearing Work?

From Cleo Abram.

Here’s how your ears actually work.

Really, you are hearing electrical signals made from ripples in liquid made from bones vibrating made from pressure waves… !!!!

Clever technology can help this process for people: Most hearing aids work by amplifying those waves right before they enter your ear. Some newer ones use machine learning to help decide which waves to amplify – and then those waves become vibrations which become ripples which become electrical signals which become SOUND TO YOUR BRAIN.
