External ear: External auditory meatus

Elastic cartilage, continuous with that of the auricle, supports the auditory meatus in its outer third, while the support of the inner two-thirds is provided by the temporal bone. Typical thin skin, possessing many hairs, sebaceous and ceruminous glands, lines the external auditory meatus. 40x
