Acts as a pressure relief valve for fluid in the ear?
there are two types of windows inside the ear. the oval window and the round window. The round window serves as a pressure relief valve
What is the difference between the oval window and the round window?
the oval window- an oval opening between the middle ear and the vestibule having the base of the stapes or columella attached to its membrane -- called also fenestra ovalis, fenestra vestibuli the round window: a round opening between the middle ear and the cochlea that is closed over by a membrane -- called also fenestra cochleae, fenestra rotunda
What part of the ear transfers sound vibrations to the cochlea?
the oval window
How does longitudinal waves in the air produce longitudinal waves in the cochlear fluid of the inner ear?
The pressure wave in the air enters the ear canal and vibrates the tympanic membrane (the ear drum) the ear drum vibrates the malleus (hammer), the incus (anvil) and the stappes (stirrup) in the middle ear. These bonds vibrate the oval window (into the cochlea) and the oval window produces a pressure wave in the fluid in the inner ear.
Which structure catches the wave and stops the vibration through the cochlea?
Round Window
What does the round window do the ear?
the round window in the ear is a little hole connected to the beginning of the coclea. God bless you
Where is the round window located?
inner ear

What part of the ear extends from apex of cochlea to round window?
Internal ear.
What is the round window in the ear?
The round window is one of the two openings into the inner ear. It is closed off from the middle ear by the round window membrane, which vibrates with opposite phase to vibrations entering the inner ear through the oval window. It allows fluid in the cochlea to move, which in turn ensures that hair cells of the Basilar membrane will be stimulated and that audition will occur.
What separates outer ear from middle ear?
oval windownOK you might be wondering what separates the middle ear from the inner ear and complaing u cant find the write answer but stop searching answers.com has the answers to your questions.The answer is the oval window.The oval windowOval window. (and round window with secondary tympanic membrane also)the oval window and the round window separate the middle ear from the inner ear.

What does the elliptical window do in your ear?
This is a very good question. You have round window in your ear. It sends the wave of vibration across the internal ear through the fluid. These vibrations are transferred to elliptical window. It also vibrates along with round window. Through these vibrations of fluid you perceive the sound. So the elliptical window gives space and elasticity to fluid system to vibrate.
Where can you find the oval and round window?
The round window is one of the two openings into the cochlea of the inner ear. It is closed off from the middle ear by the round window membrane, which vibrates with opposite phase to vibrations entering the cochlea through the oval window. It allows fluid in the cochlea to move, which in turn ensures that hair cells of the basilar membrane will be stimulated and that audition will occur.

How does sound tavel in through the ear?
The sound is concentrated by your outer ear to your external ear canal. It makes to vibrate your ear drum. Then the vibrations are amplified and transferred to the oval window. From there you have the vibrations transferred to round window. The fluid vibrates between the two windows. These vibrations are taken up by the hair cells from your inner ear and the message is sent to the brain for final analysis of the sound.
Does The oval window separate the middle ear from the inner ear?
The oval window is part of the middle ear but in theory, yes it does separate the middle ear from the inner ear.
