If your baby has a fever (temp at or above 100.4 F) using a different method, such as using a tympanic thermometer (in your baby's ear) or checking under his arm, it is usually a good idea to confirm that he really has a fever by taking a rectal temperature.

In the middle ear, pressure oscillations in the air are transferred via the tympanic membrane (eardrum) and one or three small bones (ossicles) to fluid movements in the inner ear, where the conversion of sound waves to nerve signals takes place.

Surprisingly, the measurements showed that not only the terrestrial adult salamanders, but also the fully aquatic juvenile salamanders — and even the lungfish, which are completely maladapted to aerial hearing — were able to detect airborne sound despite not having a tympanic middle ear.

The tympanic middle ear improves the transfer of sound energy from the surroundings to the sensory cells in the inner ear by up to 1,000 times, and is therefore very important for hearing in terrestrial vertebrates.

At the receiving end, the outer ears collect the waves» energy, causing vibrations in the tympanic membrane — the eardrum.

When vibrations hit the tympanic membrane and moved the short ends of the slivers outside the cavity, the long ends inside the cavity wobbled, sending smaller but more powerful waves rippling through the fluid to the row of sensor cells.
