More specifically, damage to cilia cells (tiny hairs within the B.M.) corresponding to the frequency of a sound result in the impairment of ones ability to hear that frequency. An average, a healthy young person is able to hear between 20-20,000 hertz and will have approximately 30,000 cilia. By middle age damage to cilia reduces the range of hearing to an average of 12-14,000 hertz.
