Which statement best describes a conductive hearing loss in a child?

A. Cochlear implants are used to treat sensorineural hearing loss, which involves damage to the inner ear or auditory nerve. Conductive hearing loss is usually treated with medical or surgical intervention, such as tubes or hearing aids. B. Conductive hearing loss occurs when sound waves cannot effectively reach the inner ear, often due to fluid, wax, or structural issues. Otitis media with effusion (fluid in the middle ear without infection) is a common cause of temporary conductive hearing loss in children. C. Auditory nerve damage causes sensorineural hearing loss, not conductive. D. While some hearing losses are inherited, conductive hearing loss is typically caused by external or middle ear problems, not genetic factors.
