Detailed Solution

In the middle ear, hammer bones are found.
In a human ear, the vibrations are detected and transmitted to the inner ear by the ear ossicles named the malleus, incus, and stapes present in the middle ear. They are also called hammers, anvils, and stirrups, respectively. Hammer’s bones, called anvils and stirrups, are found in the middle ear. These bones amplify the vibrations produced by the eardrums. These vibrations are then transferred to the cochlea present in the inner ear. There is a fluid called cochlear fluid, which transfers these signals to the brain.
