Explain the difference between conductive and nerve deafness?
Conductive deafness is caused by the bones in the middle ear to pass on sound vibrations to the inner ear. Nerve deafness may be caused by a disease or some other event that injures the cochlear nerve.
What is otosclerosis?
It is a disorder causing deafness due to the overgrowth of bone in the inner ear.
Because copper is a metal then it is?
Because copper is a metal, then it is conductive.
What elements are good at conducting heat and electricity?
super conductive elements, beena while since i looked at a periodic table but i believe it is broken into parts. being non conductive, partial conductive, conductive, and super conductive. i thinkt here may even be a 5th section somewhere. if memory serves the further right you go the more conductive it becomes.
What would be least conductive cooper salt water glass or mercury?
Glass
Is sensorineural deafness often improved by a hearing aid?
yes
Explain the difference between conductive and nerve deafness?
Conductive deafness is caused by the bones in the middle ear to pass on sound vibrations to the inner ear. Nerve deafness may be caused by a disease or some other event that injures the cochlear nerve.
Can conduction deafness result from a lesion on the cochlear nerve?
Yes the result from a lesion on the cochlear nerve is sensorineural deafness. The result from the fusion of the ossicles is conduction deafness.
What are the three basic types of hearing loss?
sensorineural, conductive, and mixed
Loss of hearing resulting from prolonged exposure to high-intensity sounds?
Sensorineural deafness
What is the most common cause of sensorineural deafness?
The great majority of human sensorineural hearing loss is caused by abnormalities in the hair cells of the organ of Corti in the cochlea.
What is the difference between conduction deafness and perceptive deafness?
Conductive deafness is when the sound waves are prevented from reaching the inner ear. It can be because of wax in the outer canal, fluid inside it, or the tiny bones in the ear have seized up. With perceptive deafness, sound waves can reach the inner ear, though it is a disease of the nerves leading to the brain or a condition affecting the function of the inner ear. Most cases of deafness fall into the category of conductive and perceptive deafness, though other cases of deafness are as simple as the result of old age.
What do you hear when you have conductive deafness?
muffled soounds or nothing
What is sensorineural deafness?
Sensorineural deafness is decreased hearing or hearing loss that occurs from damage to the inner ear, the nerve that runs from the ear to the brain (auditory nerve), or the brain. Sensorineural deafness can be present at birth (congenital), or it can develop later in life (acquired) as a result of: Disease of the blood vessels (vascular disease) Immune disease Infections Injury Meniere's disease Multiple sclerosis Use of certain medicines Tumor In some cases, the cause is unknown.
What Conductive deafness occurs because of damage to what part of the body?
weenis
What is condictive deafness?
Conductive hearing loss occurs when there is a problem conducting sound waves anywhere along the route through the outer ear, tympanic membrane (eardrum), or middle ear (ossicles). This type of hearing loss may occur in conjunction with sensorineural hearing loss or alone.
The death of hair cells by continued exposure of high amplitude sound of a single frequency such as a jet engine is?
sensorineural deafness
