Question
Chapter 13.5, Problem 19CYU
Summary Introduction
To review:
Whether the following phrases apply to the macula or crista amullaris:
1. Inside a semi-circular canal
2. Contains otoliths
3. Responds to the linear acceleration as well as deceleration
4. Has a cupula
5. Responds to rotational acceleration as well as deceleration
6. Inside a saccule
Introduction:
The ear is considered to be the primary organ for the hearing purpose. The ear is segregated into the inner, middle, and external ear. The inner ear is also referred to as labyrinth due to its complex shape and it segregated into the bony and membranous labyrinth.
