Vedclass · Answer

(A) The middle ear contains three tiny bones called ear ossicles: the malleus,incus,and stapes.These bones are arranged in a chain-like sequence starting from the tympanic membrane (eardrum) towards the inner ear.The outermost bone is the malleus (hammer),which is attached to the tympanic membrane.The middle bone is the incus (anvil),which connects the malleus to the stapes.The innermost bone is the stapes (stirrup),which is attached to the oval window of the inner ear.Therefore,the correct sequence from outside to inside is malleus $\rightarrow$ incus $\rightarrow$ stapes.

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$(a)$. Incus	$(i)$. Hammer shaped
$(b)$. Malleus	$(ii)$. Stirrup shaped
$(c)$. Stapes	$(iii)$. Anvil shaped
