Conductive deafness involves a problem with the middle ear, where the sound waves are not transmitted properly to the inner ear. The hearing aid amplifies the sound waves in the auditory canal, which causes the eardrum to vibrate more than normal, making it easier for the sound waves to be transmitted to the inner ear. Therefore, the answer is the eardrum (B).
