Anvil, hammer and stirrup bone. The fusion or immobilization of the bones leads to hearing loss because the bones do not move or vibrate in response to sound waves.

<h3>What happened when the bones of the middle ear fuse together? </h3>

They transmit sound waves to the cochlea (inner ear), converting them into signals sent to the brain. In otosclerosis, the stapes ("legs") begins to fuse with surrounding bone, eventually becoming fused making it unable to move.

<h3> What is the function of the oval frame and window? </h3>

The function of the middle ear is to transmit movement of the tympanic membrane (or tympanic membrane) to the inner ear. This enhance increases the pressure on the connective tissue of the oval window. This pressure is eventually transmitted through the stapes, pressing against the oval window, to the cochlea.

Products are what is created during a reaction. What are the three products of cellular respiration
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

The three products of cellular respiration are:

  1. ATP
  2. Water
  3. Carbon dioxide

Explanation:

  • Cellular respiration is the process of breaking down glucose molecules to yield energy in the form of ATP.
  • C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O

ATP Production:

  • The first step of cellular respiration, glycolysis, yields 2 net ATP.
  • The second step, Kreb's cycle produces 10 NADH and 2 FADH2 molecules. Both these molecules store energy that is released in the electron transport chain to produce 34 ATP.
  • Therefore, a total of 36 ATP are produced as a result of cellular respiration in eukaryotes.

Carbon dioxide Production:

  • 2 molecules of CO2 are produced during the conversion of pyruvate into Acetyl Co-A by the <em>pyruvate dehydrogenase</em> complex.
  • 4 molecules of CO2 are produced in the Kreb's cycle.

Water Production:

  • Water is produced in the Electron Transport Chain (ETC) by the reduction of oxygen.

3.Trace the pathway taken by sperm from the testis to the preputial orifice.
olga2289 [7]
3. The sperm is produced inside the scrotum and stored in the e<span>pididymis. During ejaculation, the sperm flows through the Vas deferens and the ejaculatory duct before reaching the urethra. The urethra is the tube inside the penis that ends in the preputial orifice or the hole at the tip of the penis where the sperm flows out.</span>
