Once again, the DESIGN of the CREATOR, something like even earwax, is looked to for the Design of human made things for efficiency.
Earwax, secreted in the ear canal, protects ears from building up dunes of debris from particles wafting through the air. The wax creates a sticky particle-trapper inside the canal, ... The goo coats hairs and haphazardly pastes them into a
loose net. Then, by a process not yet fully understood, bits of particle-dirtied wax leave the ear, taking their burden of debris with them.
Earwax may accomplish such a feat because trapping more and more dust turns it from gooey to crumbly.
Jaw motions might help shake loose these crumbs, Zachow said. A video inside the ear of someone eating a doughnut showed earwax bucking and shifting. This dust-to-crumb scenario needs more testing, but Noel points out that earwax might someday inspire new ways of reducing dust buildup in machinery." ScienceNews
The hearing ear, and the seeing eye,
the LORD hath made even both of them.
