Semicircular canals, filled with fluid, are involved in dynamic equilibrium. The tubes are oriented in three planes: horizontal, frontal, and sagittal. They respond to changes in the position of the head.

What kind of cell detects a stimulus?
Temperature - Skin Receptors.
What are four marcomolecules and their functions?
four major macromolecules are carbohydrates-Energy storage, receptors, structure of plant cell wall; proteins-Enzymes, structure, receptors, transport, and more; lipids-Membrane structure, energy storage, insulation, and nucleic acids-Information storage and transfer.
Why does a sperm cell have a energy producing structure?
not a single structure but plenty of them; it moves and movements cost lots of energy
What is the receptor of a reflex arc?
Sensory receptor located at the distal end of a neuron or an associated sensory structure. When stimulated it creates a receptor potential, when that reaches its threshold, it will trigger 1 or more nerve impulses in the sensory neuron.
Why does a eukaryotic cell need membranous organelles and fibrous cytoskeletal components?
That's what distinguishes it from a less complex prokaryoitic cell.
Which is the first structure stimulated in a reflex arc?
Sensory receptors.
The structure that actually contains the hearing receptors is?
The cochlea
Three movements is a typical formal structure for what baroque?
Three movements is a typical formal structure for a baroque Concerto Grosso.
What kind of cell detects a stimulus?
Temperature - Skin Receptors.
What structure contains the receptors for balance while standing?
the inner ear
What are the specialized structure in the cell membrane that are involved in communication?
Receptors and receptor proteins
What are four marcomolecules and their functions?
four major macromolecules are carbohydrates-Energy storage, receptors, structure of plant cell wall; proteins-Enzymes, structure, receptors, transport, and more; lipids-Membrane structure, energy storage, insulation, and nucleic acids-Information storage and transfer.
Are carbon bonds freely rotational?
Single bonds to carbon are usually freely rotational, but double and triple bonds usually are not. Rotation can also be hindered by steric factors; the carbon-carbon single bonds in cyclopropane, for example, are not freely rotational because of the constraint of the cyclic structure.
What is the structure composing the internal ear?
The semicircular canals, the vestibule, and the cochlea, which are subdivisions of the bony labyrinth. Semicircular canals and the vestibule contain receptors for equilibrium and the cochlea contains receptors for hearing.
What type of structure would a hormone's target posses that other non-target organs would not?
Receptors for that hormone
Which type of joint allows movement in all direction?
A ball and socket joint allows movement in all directions. This type of joint is formed when a bone with a rounded end fits into a socket-like structure of another bone, allowing for rotational as well as angular movements. Examples include the hip and shoulder joints.
What recognizes a hormone's chemical structure in the endocrine system?
Hormone receptors on cell membranes recognize a hormone's chemical structure in the endocrine system. When the hormone binds to the receptor, a cell changes its behavior.
