Question
Chapter 8, Problem 29SAE
Summary Introduction
To review:
The receptors of the dynamic equilibrium are located and activated at certain sites in the ear.
Introduction:
Dynamic equilibrium interprets the balance during the rotatory or angular movement. The organs of balance transmits the information to the brain about the position to the body and about the motion of the body in different directions.
