Question
Chapter 16.5, Problem 28WDYL
Summary Introduction
To explain:
Maculae detect what types of movement and what is the process of detection.
Concept introduction:
Macula is the sensory receptors which are found in the utricle and saccule. Macula is made up of hair cells and supporting cells. Hair cells contain long, kinocilium and innumerous microvilli (stereocilia).
