Last Plate Sequence of events involved in hearing. Sound waves are funneled by the auricle into the external auditory meatus. 1. The sound waves strike the tympanic membrane, causing it to vibrate. 2. 3. Vibrations of the tympanic membrane are amplified as they pass through the malleus, incus, and stapes. 4. The vestibular window (oval window) is pushed back and forth by the stapes. 5. Vibrations of the vestibular window set up pressure waves in the perilymph of the cochlea. 6. The pressure waves area propagated through the scalavestibuli and the scala tympani to the endolymph contained within the cochlear duct. 7. Stimulation of the hair cells within the spiral organ of the cochlea causes the generation of nerve impulses in the cochlear nerve (a portion of the vestibular[eighth cranial] nerve), which pass into the pons of the brain.
