loss, Central and Functional hearing loss. Conductive hearing loss is when there is not enough sound getting thorough the outer and middle ear. Sensitivity to sound is diminished, but clarity is not changed as long as the sound is loud. Sensorineural hearing loss, sound is flowing normal through the outer and middle ear, but there is impairment in the inner ear auditory nerve (CN VIII) causing hearing loss. A problem with sensorineural lose is that sound is heard, but the person doesn’t understand

relation to decibels what does this look like from a medical standpoint.

systems feature two ears, one on each side of the head. The primary biological binaural cue is the split-second delay between the time when sound from a single source reaches the near ear and when it reaches the far ear. This is often technically referred to as the "interaural time difference". Monaural localization mostly depends on the filtering effects of external structures. In advanced auditory systems, these external filters include the head, shoulders, torso, and outer ear

impairment. Consider the pathways of hearing and answer the following questions: 1. What are the two major categories of hearing loss? (include the structure impaired in each case) (2 pts) Conductive Hearing Loss ( inner ear- cochlea) and Sensorineural hearing losses (outter ear/ middle ear- external auditory canal/ auditory ossicles) 2. Describe how the Weber & Rinne tests work to differentiate these two disorders. (2pts) For Rinne: The doctor strikes a tuning fork and places it near the base of
