Which parts of the cochlea are responsible for sensing angular acceleration?

∙ 16y ago
The semicircular canals are responsible for dynamic equilibrium and more specifically angular acceleration. The anterior, posterior, and lateral semicircular ducts are the specific canals which detect rotational movements.

Which parts of the cochlea are responsible for sensing linear acceleration?
The vestibule is specifically responsible for static equilibrium. The Ultricle and the Saccule are specifically responsible for detecting linear acceleration.
Active and passive remote sensing?
Remote sensing transmits energy that allows an image to be formed. Passive remote sensing collects energy that is reflected or emitted from a surface.
What are the two parts of the neurons for sensing and returning nerve impulses int he body?
The dendrite and the axon.
Which sensory structure in the inner ear is capable of sensing rapid rotation of your head to the left?
crista of a semicircular duct
What are the small hair-like structures for movement or sensing things in a cell?
Cilia and/or flagella.
Which parts of the cochlea are responsible for sensing linear acceleration?
The vestibule is specifically responsible for static equilibrium. The Ultricle and the Saccule are specifically responsible for detecting linear acceleration.
What is cochlea damage?
The cochlea is the main hearing-related organ of the inner ear. When it is damaged, permanent hearing loss is the result. Tiny "hair cells" on the cochlea are responsible for sensing specific sounds, and cochlea damage is caused by the bending and/or breaking of these "hair cells."
Is the circulatory system responsible for sensing your environment?
No, it is not. Your various senses have the job of sensing your environment.
What are facts about kinesthetic sense?
Vestibular organs response to acceleration, both linear and dynamic, in every possible plane. The way the brain interprets these signals is how we derive our sense of 'balance'.Joint kinesthesia refers to the sensing of the angular position of a joint and is mediated by muscle spindles in muscle tissue.
What structures are responsible for sensing distortions of body tissue?
nerves
What has the author Natascha Oppelt written?
Natascha Oppelt has written: 'Monitoring of the biophysical status of vegetation using multi-angular, hyperspectral remote sensing for the optimization of a physically-based SVAT model' -- subject(s): Plant ecology, Remote sensing
What sense of light isTactile Meissner's corpuscles responsible for?
Yes, sensing light touch.
What part if the skin is responsible for sensing pressure?
the nerve endings that detect pressure on your skin are called what
What actions are nerves responsible for?
sensing activity on the tooth's surface feeling the movements of your tongue allowing you to speak correctly
What part of the cerebrum is responsible for sensing body touch and temperature?
the nervous system and the skin
What system is responsible for sensing vibrations in the water on a goldfish?
When you look very closely at a goldfish you will see a row/line of what appears to be dots along the side of the fish. This line is called a "Lateral Line" it consists of tiny sensors that are receptive to many signals including variations in pressure. This "Lateral Line" is the part of the fish responsible for sensing the vibrations in the water.
Way of collecting information from a distance with satellite or other devices?
remote sensing
