Why is it that children under the age of 5 can hear sounds upto 25 kHz but adults cannot do so?
Hi,
The children under age 5 years have a fully developed inner and middle ears allowing them to hear from 20 Hz to 25,000 Hz. As the age increases, our inner ear changes gradually which cause reduce in hearing capacity from 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz
