Evolution of mammalian auditory ossicles
ID: evolution-of-mammalian-auditory-ossicles
The evolution of mammalian auditory ossicles is a fascinating aspect of vertebrate anatomy and evolutionary biology that highlights the transformation of structures involved in hearing. The auditory ossicles are a group of three tiny bones in the middle ear of mammals—namely, the malleus, incus, and stapes—that play a crucial role in transmitting sound vibrations from the outer ear to the inner ear.
