Question
Chapter 29, Problem 12TYK
Summary Introduction
To list: The warning and its effect associated with loud music in concerts, and also to analyze the effect of loud music devices.
Introduction: Listening the loud music cause higher pressure on the receptors in the ears; a constant high pressure on the receptor makes them disabled from getting any stimulus from the external environment. Noise levels above 110 decibels can strip the hearing ability from an individual; thus, it removes the ability of nerves to transmit the signal to the brain.

Why do you think people don't use hearing protection more often? What could be done to encourage people to protect their hearing?
More than 1.1 billion young adults are at risk for hearing loss according to World Health
Organization (WHO, 2015). The primary reason is increasing use of personal audio devices with
headphones or earphones. Hearing loss is of two main types: conduction deafness and
perception deafness. Young adults are more likely to experience perception or nerve deafness.
Which of the following parts of the ear is not involved in nerve deafness?
Select one:
a. Organ of Corti
b. Semicircular canal
C. Auditory nerve and basilar membrane
d. Sensory neurons and hair cells
Why should children with hearing aids utilize FM technology?

- SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, AND SOCIETY Cochlear implants bring hearing to many children who are born deaf. The prognosis is best when the device is implanted before the child is three years old (during the early years when language is developed). Many individuals in the deaf community (which consists of individuals born deaf or who are affected by deafness) who communicate with sign language oppose cochlear implants. They do not view the inability to hear as a disability. This perspective raises ethical questions for some families with children who are deaf. Argue for and against cochlear implants for very young children.arrow_forwardOccupational Hearing Loss Frequent exposure to loud noise of a particular pitch can cause loss of hair cells in the part of the cochlea that responds to that pitch. People who work with or around noisy machinery are at risk for such frequency-specific hearing loss. Taking precautions such as using ear plugs to reduce sound exposure is important. Noise-induced hearing loss can be prevented, but once it occurs it is irreversible because dead or damaged hair cells are not replaced. FIGURE 33.24 shows the threshold decibel levels at which sounds of different frequencies can be detected by an average 25-year-old carpenter, a 50-year-old carpenter, and a 50-year-old who has not been exposed to on-the-job noise. Sound frequencies are given in hertz (cycles per second), The more cycles per second, the higher the pitch. FIGURE 33.24 Effects of age aria occupational noise exposure. The graph shows the threshold hearing capacities fin decibels) for sounds of different frequencies (given in hertz) in a 25-year-okj carpenter (blue). a 50-year-old carpenter (red), arid a 50-year-ofd who did not have any on-the-job noise exposure (brown). 1. Which sound frequency was most easily detected by all three people?arrow_forwardYou are experiencing some hearing loss. You don’t work with loud machinery or go to loud concerts. But, you do work in a busy smoothie bar, so have regular exposure to a loud blender. The ear doctor tells you that although blenders are only moderately loud, frequent exposure to sound levels greater than _______ (like the blender) has most likely caused damage to the cochlear hairs that produce those sounds. 75 dB 95 dB 125 dB 150 dB 175dBarrow_forward

Fluid trapped in the middle ear Aging Ruptured tympanic membrane Cerumen build uparrow_forwardWhy does the actual Auditory response produced by stimuli have to be detected by electrodes located on the scalp and the earsarrow_forward
- Which of the following is a function of the external ear? O To protect against broadband noises such as high explosives O To disregard any cues on the elvation of the sound source To help distinguish ba from pa consonants To match low-impedance sounds to the higher-impedance fluid of the inner ear Objects are perceived by photoreceptors because the rods or cones as their in the presence of light depolarize, pigments are manufactured hyperpolarize; pigments decompose repolarize; pigments remain unchanged depolarize; pigments decomposearrow_forwardHow do we localize where sound is coming from and which structures are responsible? Select all that apply: a. The auditory nerve communicates with the vestibular nuclei to process information about the body's location b. Medial geniculate nucleus processes visual stimuli to locate visual cues associated with the sound c. The hair cells simultaneously process information about frequency as well as the location the sound originated in d.

- I need to differentiate the functions of parts of the ear. The vestibular apparatus, which has fluid and hairs in it--head position ex. car sickness, while reading in moving car; semicircular canals, which have hairs in it--balance and equilibrium ex. dizziness when riding a merry-go-round; and cochlea, which have cilia--hearing ex. hearing loss going to a concert.arrow_forwardYour friend had a severe infection in the cochlea, which caused deafness. The scarring from the infection prevents movement of the basilar membrane of the organ of Corti. In response to a sound, you would predict that: The tympanic membrane would not vibrate The tympanic membrane would vibrate but the three bones in the middle ear would not move The three bones in the middle ear would move, but the cochlear fluid would not have any waves The cochlear fluid would have waves, but the hair cells would not bend The hair cells would bend, but no receptor potential would be createdarrow_forwardTinnitus produces a ringing sound in the ear, although no external sound is actually present. It is a symptom that manifests from various underlying conditions of the ear. One condition that leads to tinnitus is earwax impaction. Many individuals use cotton swabs to clean the auditory canal daily. Instead of removing the earwax, cotton swabs tend to push the earwax farther into the auditory canal, causing the earwax to accumulate in the ear. This may result in tinnitus and decreased ability to hear. Earwax impaction in the auditory canal will Select one: a. lead to the loss of hair cells in the organ of Corti b. lead to perception deafness c. damage the ossicles d. lead to conduction deafnessarrow_forward
