How do sound vibrations reach the cochlea when conduction deafness is present?

Sound is conducted to the receptors of the ear through vibrations of the skull bones. This is because in conduction deafness the ossicles are fused such as the stapes foot plate which can fuse to the oval window, and ossicles can fuse to oneanother from overgrowth of bony tissue. Vibrations arent specific this way and detailed so vibrations are picked up by larger surrounding bones which becomes distorted sound.

How do sound wave reach the cochlea when conduction deafness is present?
how do sound waves reach the cochlea when conduction of deafness is present? when something interferes with the conduction of sound vibration to the fluids of the inner ear.something as simple as a buildup of earwax may be cause.
What is the function of cochlea in the body?
the vibrations from the stirrup arrive at the cochlea, where the cilia (tiny hair like structures) take the vibration convert it into information at the nerve endings where the brain can understand and interpret the sound for us
What is the name of the liquid present inside the cochlea?
endolymph
Which fluid is present in the inner part of your ear known as cochlea?
The perilymph fluid
A fluid that is present?
there are 2 fluids present inside the cochlea ! 1st one is perylymph present in bony labyrinth and the 2nd one is endolymph is present in membranous labyrinth
Why is water needed for electrical conduction?
It is not, electrical conduction will happen in coper wihtout any water present.
Can energy be transferred by conduction even when no matter is present?
No.
Were in your body would you find a stirrup bone?
stirrup is one of the bones present in the ear.Thee are 3 bones altogether : hammer anvil and stirrup, and their scientific names...malleus , incuz and stapes respectively. these magnify the vibrations due to their small area and pass them to the cochlea through the oval window.
Why the sound waves could not pass through vacuum?
Sound waves need to cause vibrations in a medium in order to travel. Vibrations cannot be created in a vacuum, as there is no matter present.
What happens for the perception of sensation to take place?
stimulus present, receptor activated, nerve impulse conduction
How does conduction take place in graphite?
Because there free electrons are present in conduction shell of graphite hence this electrons transfer charge from one place to another place in graphite crystal, & makes it conductive.Ok bhAI
How many energy levels are present in the 3s conduction band of a single crystal of sodium weighing 26.8 mg?
6.86x10^20
