The structure that collects sound and funnels it into the auditory canal is called the pinna.

The ear is an exposed and sensitive organ in the human body. It is concerned with collecting, transmitting, and producing sounds. It also helps to maintain balance in the body. It has three main parts: the external ear, the middle ear, and the internal ear. Pinna is a part of the external ear.

Pinna is also called auricle. It is composed of cartilage folds that are covered by skin. The only part of the audible which is not covered by cartilage is the lobule. The curvature formed by cartilage is known as a helix. Another part of the pinna includes the meatus which is responsible for directing sounds collected by the helix.

Pinna acts as a link that transfers sound signals from the air to the auditory canal inside the ear. The tympanic membrane carries the sounds in an S-shaped path towards the middle ear (auditory canal).

To know more about pinna, part of the ear, refer to the following link:

Why is vaping bad for you
Lisa [10]

vaping is bad for you because your smoking 6x more then a regular cigarette

Smoking leads to disease and disability and harms nearly every organ of the body.

More than 16 million Americans are living with a disease caused by smoking. For every person who dies because of smoking, at least 30 people live with a serious smoking-related illness. Smoking causes cancer, heart disease, stroke, lung diseases, diabetes, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Smoking also increases risk for tuberculosis, certain eye diseases, and problems of the immune system, including rheumatoid arthritis.

Secondhand smoke exposure contributes to approximately 41,000 deaths among nonsmoking adults and 400 deaths in infants each year. Secondhand smoke causes stroke, lung cancer, and coronary heart disease in adults. Children who are exposed to secondhand smoke are at increased risk for sudden infant death syndrome, acute respiratory infections, middle ear disease, more severe asthma, respiratory symptoms, and slowed lung growth.
