Your ears are amazing. The inner ear can detect your position of the body in relation to the original pull of gravity on the body and can tell you when it is different and when it comes back to normal. If you do a dive off of a diving board, you will unknowingly realize when you are upside right or inverted to any degree other than upright. The reason is there are patches of hair cells which are attached to thousands of tiny spheres of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and these are pulled downward by gravity and the brain gets notified of any changes such as a nod of the head or any other disorientation and your body reacts to this change therefore equilibrium can be maintained. There are three semicircular canals inside the inner ear at the top which are oriented to a different plane, giving your brain a X, Y and Z location to remember. When these planes are given some different information than your eyes can comprehend, such as being on a rocking boat or a roller coaster, you get disoriented and "sea-sickness" can occur. Motion sickness is just from two sensory organs sending alternate messages to the brain and you get that sick feeling in your stomach. Boxers who suffer from a quick blow to the head get a quick "something is wrong here" message and they get dizzy and disoriented thus, they take some time to regain their balance. This happens because more fluid from one of these semicircular canals go into the others and too much causes confusion and no equilibrium. See the related link for more information.
The Middle Ear has a set of three loops of tube on planes roughly perpendicular to each other: the Semicircular Canals.
Within these are nerve-endings fitted with tiny hairs, all submerged in a fluid that fills the Canals. As we move, the fluid moves, wafting the hairs to stimulate signals sent to the brain for processing into compensating-movement orders to the muscles.
The Semi-circular Canals are therefore combined accelerometers and inclinometers, in a feedback control system.
The inner ear is actually composed of several different parts, specifically the vestibular system which is comprised of fluid filled semicircular canals which detect rotations and the otolith which detects acceleration.
The nerves within the inner ear detect the shifting of fluid within the semicircular canals as the fluids within them shift in accordance with gravity (fluids indicate down from up) which then send signals to the eye muscles to keep them rotated in the up position.
The internal ear is called the labyrinth. This structure contains the saccule, the utricle and the semicircular canals which help us maintain static and dynamic balance through a set of complex receptors who communicate information to the central nervous system via the vestibular part of the 8th cranial nerve.
I belive it has fluids that it knoes the angle of to help us stay balanced.
yes they do Yes they send signals, using the semi-circular canals located near your cochlea, to the brain saying that they are sideways.

Their is a liquid substance in your ears that balance you that is why if you spin around you get dizzy.

The ears help with balance. The structures of the ear that help with keeping an equilibrium is the inner ear. The inner ear is responsible for hearing and balance.

They enable us to distinguish 'up' from 'down' - and help up maintain our balance.

it helps us with our balance and they help us to hear what is going on around us
It helps with balance and coordination.
Anything that involves the use of balance will help with continuing balance, unless you have a condition impacting the functioning of your inner ear.

The inner ear is the main part of an organ that influence balance. Of course there are parts of the brain that governs balance. Also the toes helps us to keep our balance. If you bend your knees a bit you will find it easier to keep balance.
