Dynamic equilibrium receptors are found in the?
Semicircular Canals
What contains receptors for the sense of equilibrium?
The semicircular canals and the vestible are responsible for balance.
What does your sense of balance depend on?
semicircular canals
Where do the semicircular canals meet?
The semicircular canals are three loops of interconnected canals within the inner ear which are responsible for detecting angular acceleration. The three canals are the superior posterior and lateral canals. These canals meet at the common crus or the ampulla. Superior semicircular canal Posterior semicircular canal Lateral semicircular canalThe three canals meet at the common crus or the ampulla. The ampulla is a small pouch-like structure that contains a fluid known as the endolymph. The ampulla is located at the base of the semicircular canals and serves as a sensory organ for maintaining balance and equilibrium.

You are an ice skater and are learning to spin when you stop the room keeps moving and you cannot get your balance which structure is involved in this?
for apex it is semicircular canals :)
Are semicircular canals the same as semicircular ducts?
No. Semicircular canals are located in the vestibule of the ear and are membranous that contain receptor cells; semicircular ducts house dynamic equilibrium receptors and contain an enlarged region and a receptor region and that respond to angular motion.
