The inner ear is responsible for both hearing and balance. One of the diseases affecting the inner ear is Meniere's disease. Affected individuals often experience vertigo, among other symptoms. Vertigo is a sensation that the surrounding is spinning or swaying in the absence of any body movement. Which of the following rows correctly identifies the affected structure and process in individuals experiencing vertigo? Select one: a. Structure  Process   Semicircular canals   Rotational equilibrium b. Structure  Process Semicircular canals   Gravitational equilibrium c. Structure  Process   Organ of Corti   Gravitational equilibrium d. Structure  Process Organ of Corti   Rotational equilibrium

Name a sensory spot of equilibrium found in ampullae of semicircular canals.

Compare and contrast how the hair cells work in the semicircular canals, the vestibule, and the cochlea, in each case describing exactly how a stimulus is elicited.

Which of the following components listed is not a part of the spiral organ? (a) the tectorial membrane, (b) the inner hair cells, (c) the outer hair cells, (d) the spiral ganglion.

Explain how movements of the basilar membrane affect hair cells, and how hair cells can stimulate associated sensory neurons.

Microstimulation of area MT in humans would most likely influence visual processing of     a. color.     b. faces.     c. motion.     d. places.

Where would you find the soma of a sensory afferent fiber?

Do answer and explain Which of the following cells in the inner ear are involved in detecting angle of the head? A. Hair cells in the maculae B. Outer pillar cells C. Hair cells in the cristae ampullaris D. Cells of Hensen E. Hair cells in the organ of Corti
