Answer to Question 1

E

Answer to Question 2

Blockage of the auditory tube leads to pain because pressure cannot equilibrate between the middle ear and the atmosphere. Also, fluid can accumulate (otitis media) in the middle ear, which is also painful and potentially infective. Untreated, adenoids can lead to scarring of the tympanum and some loss of hearing.
