A new medical procedure replaces all three of the tiny bones in the inner ear with a single piece of ultra-thin fiberglass. The procedure has been found to greatly improve hearing in people who have experienced damage to these bones, though it is useless to people whose hearing loss stems from a neurological malfunction. This procedure will benefit a relatively small percentage of the hearing-impaired population
Which of the following can be concluded from the argument above?
A. It is possible to hear without the use of the three tiny bones in the inner ear.
B. Most hearing loss is due to neurological malfunctioning.
C. More people have impaired hearing because of neurological damage than because of damage to the tiny bones of the inner ear.
D. Hearing loss due to neurological damage is more severe than hearing loss due to damage to the tiny bones in the inner ear.
E. The use of fiberglass cannot help people who have lost hearing due to neurological damage.![]()
