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.

The different Parts of the Human EarThe three major parts of the human ear are the outer ear, the middle ear and the inner ear.Outer Ear: The outer ear consists of the following two parts:Ear Flap (Pinna)Ear Canal (Meatus)Middle Ear: consists of the following parts:Eardrum -HammerAnvil (Incus)Stirrup (Stapes)Inner Ear (Labyrinth): The inner ear comprises the following parts:CochleaSemicircular Canals -Auditory Nerve
The petrous part of the temporal bone encloses the structures of the inner ear. Inside the tympanic cavity within the petrous part is the middle ear. The external acoustic canal ends at the tympanic membrane, which leads to the inner ear. Mastoid air cells within the mastoid process are connected to the tympanic cavity.

The inner ear is a complex structure that consists of several components. One of the main structures is the cochlea, which looks like a spiral-shaped, snail-like structure and is responsible for hearing. Another important structure is the vestibular system, which helps us maintain balance and spatial orientation. It includes the vestibule and semicircular canals, which are connected by fluid-filled channels.
The vestibulocochlear nerve also known as the eighth cranial nerve transmits sound and equilibrium and is common to the hearing and equilibrium functions of the inner ear.
The cochlea is located in the inner ear, in contact with the latter part of the 3 small bone structures that constitute the middle ear (the stirrup, hammer and anvil.)
