Vedclass · Answer

(C) The human ear performs two primary sensory functions:$1$. Hearing: The external,middle,and inner ear (cochlea) work together to convert sound waves into nerve impulses,which are then interpreted by the brain.$2$. Body Balance: The vestibular apparatus,located in the inner ear,consists of the semicircular canals and the otolith organs (utricle and saccule),which are responsible for maintaining the balance and posture of the body.Analysis of impulses $(II)$ is a function of the brain,and olfaction $(IV)$ is the function of the nose. Therefore,the correct functions are $I$ and $III$.

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$(a)$. Incus	$(i)$. Hammer shaped
$(b)$. Malleus	$(ii)$. Stirrup shaped
$(c)$. Stapes	$(iii)$. Anvil shaped
