The semicircular canals contain fluid and hair cells responsible for maintaining one's balance. For example, when a person tilts his head, the fluid in the semicircular canals also move. This movement is then detected by the hair cells and will in turn, send signals to the brain to keep the body's balance.

∙ 7y agoThere is no exact organ in your head that is responsible for balance. There is a part of the brain there that does. It is called the cerebellum. Perhaps you mean a sense receptor called the Organ of Corti. It is found in the inner ear and along with the semicircular canals that sends signals to the brain about balance.

The outer ear, the earlobe, hasn't got anything to do with balancing.
But the inner ear holds parts that are important for balance.

Why do ears help us?
They help us with hearing, and balance. They serve as great tools for one of the humans amazing 5 senses...... with hearing they help as filttering cups, you could say. Your ears... the pinna(outer part) funnels sound into the external auditory canal, a short tube that ends at the eardrum(tympanic membrane) where the sound comes together and you then hear it. Have you ever cupped your hand behind your ear? notice how everything is louder and you can hear much more?! Think of your ears as your hand, and what your hand was doing for your ears is what your ear does for you...... with balance that's what your equilibrium in your inner ear is for....The fluid-filled semicircular canals (labyrinth) attach to the spiral-shaped cochlea and nerves in the inner ear. They send information on balance and head position to the brain. The eustachian (auditory) tube drains fluid from the middle ear into the throat (pharynx) behind the nose.
