False, The structure that allows pressure in the middle ear to be equalized with atmospheric pressure is the tympanic membrane.
A second name for the tympanic membrane is the eardrum. It divides the middle ear from the outer ear. The tympanic membrane vibrates as sound waves enter it. The middle ear's minuscule bones are thus exposed to the vibrations. The vibrating signals are then sent from the middle ear bones to the inner ear.
The outside layer of the drum membrane is continuous with the skin on the external canal. The inner layer is continuous with the mucous membrane covering the middle ear. Between the two layers is a layer of radial and circular fibres that give the membrane its tension and stiffness.
