What else can I help you with?
Do sound waves travel down the auditory canal by bone conduction?
No, sound waves travel down the auditory canal through air conduction. Bone conduction involves vibrations traveling through bones to the inner ear, bypassing the outer and middle ear.
Which hearing test compares bone and air conduction of sound waves?
The Rinne test compares bone and air conduction of sound waves in the ear. It involves placing a tuning fork on the mastoid bone behind the ear and then in front of the ear to assess the difference in perception through bone versus air conduction.
What is soft and flexible bone matter?
soft and flexible bone matterSoft and flexible bone matter is flexible bone matter. This is when a person's bones are easy to break.
How are xrays used?
because it enables you to see if you have a broken bone or not. however, it is dangerous as its bad for you, as the radiation waves get passed through your body and damage your insides! :) x
Why is it the air conduction is longer than the bone conduction?
Air conduction is slower than bone conduction because sound waves need to travel through the air, which is less dense compared to bone. In bone conduction, sound vibrations can directly stimulate the cochlea in the inner ear through the bones of the skull, bypassing the need to travel through the air.
What happens to ultrasound waves when they reach the bone inside the body?
When ultrasound waves encounter bone inside the body, they experience a significant increase in acoustic impedance due to the dense and rigid nature of bone compared to surrounding soft tissues. As a result, most of the ultrasound energy is reflected back rather than transmitted through the bone. This reflection can create a "shadowing" effect on ultrasound images, making it difficult to visualize structures behind the bone. Additionally, the high-frequency waves may be absorbed by the bone, further diminishing the signal.
How can you hear other then Sound Waves?
Hearing depends on sound waves which vibrate the ear drum and are translated into impulses which are fed to the brain.
What allows sound waves to enter the skull?
Sound waves can enter the skull through the vibrations of the bones in the skull, especially the temporal bone. These vibrations transmit sound waves to the inner ear, where they are then converted into electrical signals that are interpreted by the brain as sound.
What does an osteoblast do in a bone cell?
They build bone matter using Calcium in the blood.
What is gelatinous matter in bone?
,yellow marrow
What if the screw goes through the bone in knee surgery?
it honestly doesn't matter because if it dose the doctor's remove it and fill it in with a special type of cement
Can a knife cut through bone?
Yes, a knife can cut through bone, as bone is a hard but relatively brittle material that can be sliced through with a sharp blade.
