Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: a

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: A conductive hearing loss refers to any condition that impedes the sequence of vibrations or prevents them from reaching the auditory nerve, resulting in a loss in conduction. Sensorineural hearing losses are caused by defects of the inner ear or auditory nerve. Conductive hearing losses are seldom more than 60 to 70 dB. These losses can be effectively reduced through amplification, medical treatment, or surgery. Sensorineural losses can affect only certain frequencies, especially the high frequencies.

Did you know?

People with alcoholism are at a much greater risk of malnutrition than are other people and usually exhibit low levels of most vitamins (especially folic acid). This is because alcohol often takes the place of 50% of their daily intake of calories, with little nutritional value contained in it.

Did you know?

An identified risk factor for osteoporosis is the intake of excessive amounts of vitamin A. Dietary intake of approximately double the recommended daily amount of vitamin A, by women, has been shown to reduce bone mineral density and increase the chances for hip fractures compared with women who consumed the recommended daily amount (or less) of vitamin A.

In 1864, the first barbiturate (barbituric acid) was synthesized.

More than 20 million Americans cite use of marijuana within the past 30 days, according to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH). More than 8 million admit to using it almost every day.

Did you know?

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
