Definitions:

Conduction Deafness

Hearing loss that occurs when sound waves cannot be efficiently conducted through the outer ear canal to the eardrum and the tiny bones of the middle ear.

Eardrum

A thin membrane that separates the outer ear from the middle ear and vibrates in response to sound waves, enabling hearing.

Basilar Membrane

The basilar membrane is a critical component of the inner ear, situated within the cochlea; it plays a substantial role in the mechanical analysis of sound waves for hearing.

Cochlea

A spiral-shaped cavity in the inner ear, containing the organ responsible for converting sound waves into nerve signals perceived as sound by the brain.
