Question

Cochlea implants could consist of: Select one: a. a percutaneous plug b. both a percutaneous plug and magnetic couplings c. magnetic coupling d. isometric coupling

Answer 1

Answer:Cochlea implants could consist of both a percutaneous plug and magnetic couplings. Correct option is B.

Explanation: Cochlea implants are hearing aids which are surgically implanted to provide a person with moderate to profound sensorineural hearing loss, a modified sense of sound. The implant has two components:

- percutaneous plug: This makes up the outside component which is generally worn behind the ear.

-magnetic couplings. This makes up the inner component which is generally implanted inside the skull.

Hope this helps. Thanks.
