Top Ear Flashcards

Welcome to our ear flashcards! So we all know what ears are and what they are used for but do we truly know anything more about our favorite duo? Our ears consist of three different sections and have many parts and pieces like a jigsaw puzzle. When these pieces are put together, it makes our ears work like a charm. In our ear flashcards we have given you 3 different sets of flashcards to aid you in your studies.

In our flashcards we include terminologies for ears which describe the different pieces in our ears, the diagnostics tests used and the different sound waves we hear. An example of some of the questions we ask are “What is the definition of audiometer?” and “What is the cochlea?”. We hope our flashcards prove to be helpful in teaching you about these important features! And good luck to you in your studies.
