Explanation:
The middle ear consists of the tympanic membrane and the bony ossicles called the malleus, incus, and stapes. These three ossicles connect the tympanic membrane to the inner ear allowing for the transmission of sound waves. The malleus is the first ossicle and attaches to and moves with the tympanic membrane.
