Answer to Question 1

ANS:
B
In the Weber test, the examiner places an activated tuning fork on the midline of the skull and assesses for lateralization of sound. Rinne testing involves checking air versus bone conduction, tympanometry checks for tympanic membrane movement, and screening audiometry tests hearing.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Rinne testing is done using a tuning fork. The other equipment is used for other types of ear examinations.
