What way is hearing in humans similar to lateral-line reception?

Hearing in humans and lateral-line reception in aquatic animals both involve the detection of pressure waves in their respective environments. In humans, sound waves cause vibrations in the eardrum and inner ear structures, allowing for the perception of sound. Similarly, the lateral line system detects water movements and vibrations through specialized sensory cells, enabling fish and some amphibians to sense their surroundings. Both systems serve crucial roles in communication and environmental awareness within their habitats.
