Ears

¿Qué es el oído y qué hace?

El oído consta de tres partes diferentes, que funcionan conjuntamente para captar sonidos y transmitírselos al cerebro: el oído externo, el oído medio y el oído interno.

El oído externo

El oído externo está formado por el pabellón auditivo (también conocido como "pabellón auricular" o "pabellón de la oreja") y el conducto auditivo. Los pabellones auditivos son las partes visibles que tenemos a ambos lados de la cabeza y están compuestos por cartílago duro cubierto de piel. La principal función del pabellón auditivo consiste en captar sonidos y conducirlos hacia el conducto auditivo, que conecta con el oído medio. Las glándulas de la piel que recubren el interior del conducto auditivo fabrican cera o cerumen, que protege este conducto, eliminado la suciedad y ayudando a prevenir posibles infecciones.

El oído medio

El oído medio es una cavidad llena de aire que transforma las ondas sonoras en vibraciones y las transmite al oído interno. El oído medio está separado del externo por el tímpano (o membrana timpánica), una fina lámina de tejido que va de lado a lado del conducto auditivo y que está fuertemente tensada sobre él. Los sonidos golpean el tímpano, haciendo que se mueva.

MRNA or messenger RNA. As the central dogma of biotech goes, DNA is transcribed to mRNA which is translated to tRNA, after which the amino acids form peptide bonds and form proteins. So when you see transcription, the first thing you think of is DNA to mRNA.
