Certainly! A stethoscope typically consists of five major parts: the earpieces, which fit into the user's ears; the binaural tubes, which connect the earpieces to the rest of the stethoscope; the tubing, which transmits sound from the chest piece; the chest piece itself, which usually includes a diaphragm for high-frequency sounds and a bell for low-frequency sounds; and the stem, which connects the tubing to the chest piece. Each part plays a crucial role in effectively capturing and transmitting sound for medical examination.
