True

Explanation:

The ossicles are located in the middle ear and they make up the malleus, incus and stapes. These three tiny bones work together to intesify the vibrations of sound that pass through the tympanic membrane. One end of the malleus is attached to the tympanic membrane, and when the membrane vibrates, it passes it to the malleus, which is also attached to the incus. The incus then vibrates and it passes it along to the stapes, where its base is attached to the oval window.
