Exposure to loud sounds is unable to damage the hair cells in the inner ear and therefore cannot lead to a permanent threshold shift. d. Auditory adaptation is the increase in threshold after exposure to a loud sound. Auditory fatigue is a reduction in response of the auditory receptors to a sound over time followed by a steady state.arrow_forward
