Can You Hear Me Now ?
All of the following structures are part of the middle ear except: Tympanic cavity, Stapes, Incus, External auditory canal
What is external auditory canal
In a Rinne test, bone conduction is assessed using what bone?
What is mastoid?
Sounds waves enter the ear and travel through __________. Which causes vibrations in the eardrum.
What is auditory canal?
Acquired through the introduction of a killed or weakened form of the disease organisms through vaccination.
What is Vaccine-induced or artificial immunity?
Vaccine that is created by inactivating the toxin that a bacteria releases using heat or chemicals.
What is toxoid?
Common name for tympanic membrane.
What is eardrum?
Air conduction is heard twice as long as bone conduction so the patient will be diagnosed with no hearing loss, conductive hearing loss, or sensorineural hearing loss?
What is no hearing loss?
The vibration of the eardrum causes the bones in the ____________ ear to move back and forth.
What is middle?
Occurs when an antigen activates the immune system to produce immune substances such as antibodies. This type of immunity can be stimulated naturally (getting sick) or artificially (getting vaccinated).
What is Active immunity?
Vaccine that uses either a specific protein from the pathogen that can elicit a human immune response or
has a gene that codes for a vaccine protein is inserted and replicated in a carrier virus.
What is Subunit?
Visible portion of the ear that collects and directs sound waves toward the tympanic membrane.
With a Rinne test, a tuning fork is heard longer through bone conduction than air conduction. The patient has no hearing loss, conductive hearing loss, or sensorineural hearing loss
What is conductive hearing loss?
The inner end of the _________ moves in and out of the oval window at the same rate the eardrum is vibrating.
What is stapes?
More individuals that are immune decreases the incidence of the disease and the occurrence of the pathogen.
What is herd immunity?
Vaccine uses disease-causing viruses that have been grown in a series of cell cultures causing the virus to be unable to replicate in human cells which provokes an immune response and helps protect against future infection
What is Live-attenuated?
Essential part of the vertebrate organ of hearing and equilibrium that includes the vestibule, semicircular canals, and the cochlea
What is Inner ear?
Low frequency waves produce a __________ pitch sound.
What is low?
The movement against the oval window causes motion in the fluid that fills the _____________.
What is the cochlea?
Acquired from infection with the actual disease through exposure to the disease organisms.
What is Natural immunity?
Vaccination is created by inactivating the pathogen, usually using heat or chemicals. Tend to have a shorter length of protection than live vaccines and require boosters for long-term immunity?
What is Inactivated or Killed?
Intermediate portion of the ear containing a chain of three ossicles that extends from the tympanic membrane to the oval window
What is Middle ear?
The frequency or how rapidly sound waves vibrate each other determines the _________ of sound.
What is pitch?
The movement of the fluid causes the hairs in the fluid to move. This movement stimulates the attached cell to send a tiny impulse along the _____________.
What is auditory nerve?
Occurs when an individual receives antibodies that were produced actively in the body of another person.
What is Passive Immunity?
________________ helps prepare the body to fight invasions of a specific pathogen by stimulating antibody production.
What is vaccination?
