the study and classification of speech sounds

A

Phonetics

29
Q

is a unit of pronunciation having one vowel sound, with or without surrounding consonants, forming the whole or a part of a word).

A

syllable

30
Q

a meaningful morphological unit of a language that cannot be further divided (e.g.in,come,-ing, formingincoming).

morpheme

31
Q

communicating sounds to the brain

A

Audition

32
Q

three parts of the ear

A

Outer
Middle
Inner ear

33
Q

components of the outer ear

A

Pinna/auricle: external cartilaginous flap
External auditory meatus (EAM): canal to tympanic membrane

34
Q

Funnels sound into EAM
Protects entrance to EAM
Assists in sound localization (especially in binaural listening)

A

functions of the pinna

35
Q

no ear canal/ close ear canal

A

Atresia

36
Q

a gradual closing of the canal

A

Stenosis

37
Q

Ear Canal also known as

A

external auditory meatus

38
Q

ear drum also known as

A

tympanic membrane

39
Q

A

functions of the EAM

40
Q

Cupping the ear=______ increase in intensity

A

3 dB

41
Q

Middle ear

A

Back of ear drum and the 3 bones

42
Q

Tympanic membrane (border between outer and middle ear)
Ossicles: malleus, incus, stapes
Muscles: tensor tympani, stapedius
Oval window: entry to inner ear
Eustachian tube: path to nasopharynx

A

components of the middle ear

43
Q

Corrects impedance mismatch between air in outer air and fluid of inner ear:
Ossicles act as a lever to increase sound pressure
Size reduction from tympanic membrane to oval window increases sound intensity

Attenuates loud sounds via acoustic reflex (middle ear muscles)
Equalizes air pressure variations via eustachian tube

A

functions of the middle ear

Impulses travel through auditory nerve

A

function of the inner ear

46
