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.
The 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.
An ampulla is a dilated portion of a canal or duct. In anatomy, it is commonly used to refer to the dilated end of the semicircular canals in the inner ear responsible for detecting rotational movement and maintaining balance.
: a saccular anatomic swelling or pouch: as a: the dilatation containing a patch of sensory epithelium at one end of each semicircular canal of the ear b : one of the dilatations of the lactiferous tubules of the mammary glands that serve as reservoirs for milk c (1) : the middle portion of the fallopian tube (2) : the distal dilatation of a vas deferens near the opening of the duct leading from the seminal vesicle d : a terminal dilatation of the rectum just before it joins the anal canal
Horses and mules pulled the boats through the canals. Ropes were attached to the boats and tied on the animals, who walked alongside the canals.
Yes it would since they have a similar anatomy to humans in the inner ear, that is they also have semicircular canals and a cochlea. Actually the first inner ear appeared in the fossil record more than 420 Million years ago. Birds are a relatively young animals in evolutionary terms, having appeared only around 150 million years ago.
lined are man-made and lined with cement and stone. Unlined are natural water ways (rivers, etc.) ,or hand/machine dug canals that are re-dug and bottom drudged regularly to keep them passable
Semicircular Canals
semicircular canals
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.
semicircular canals
The inner ear contains receptors for the sense of equilibrium. These receptors are found in structures called the vestibular system, which helps us maintain balance and spatial orientation. The vestibular system provides information to the brain about head movements and position.
There are three semicircular canals in the inner ear: the anterior, posterior, and horizontal canals. These canals are part of the vestibular system, which helps with balance and spatial orientation.

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.
for apex it is semicircular canals :)
The semicircular ducts are an organ of balance located in the inner ear.
