Answer:

<h2>Ear has three main parts;   outer most part is called outer ear, middle one is as middle ear and innermost as inner ear. </h2>

Explanation:

1. Outer Ear: Pinna (the outer, funnel-like part), Ear Canal (Conducts sound vibrations from the pinna to the tympanic membrane), and Tympanic Membrane.

2. Middle Ear:  Ossicles (Tiny bones that amplify sound waves), Malleus, Tensor Tympani, Incus (Connects the Malleus to the Stapes; receives vibrations from the Malleus and looks like an anvil), Stapes, Stapedius, Oval Window (Receives vibrations from the Stapes and is the flexible opening to the cochlea).

3. Inner Ear:  Cochlea (The main structure in the inner ear; tiny coiled structure); Tympanic Canal, Vestibular Canal, Basilar Membrane, Cochlear Partition , Round Window  Organ of Corti.

.

Route of Sounds: External environment →  Collected by the pinna → Through the ear canal →  Vibrates the Tympanic Membrane →  Vibrates the ossicles →  Vibrates the Oval Window →  Sends “Traveling Waves” through the Vestibular Canal →  Pressure released by Round Window if necessary →  Inner and Outer hair cells transduce the vibrations.

Anna11 [10]

The standard plate count (SPC) method involves diluting 1.0m of bacterial culture into a series of water blanks, and then taking a sample from the water blanks to add to empty petri plates which will be filled with melted agar.

The standard plate count is a method used in microbiology, which is used to gain an insight to estimate the density of bacterial population which is present in a bacterial culture broth. This is done by plating a small concentration of the culture in a petri-dish and then counting the colonies which form in the petri-plate. This method is used mostly in the food industry, to find the density of mesophilic bacteria in food. This method is extremely essential to determine the primary source of the bacterial contaminant.
