C Correct answer
Explanation

The middle ear contains three small bones called ossicles: the malleus (hammer), incus (anvil), and stapes (stirrup). Sound vibrations from the eardrum first strike the malleus, then transfer to the incus (anvil), and finally to the stapes. The incus is the second bone in this sequence, receiving vibrations from the hammer.
