Term
bony labyrinth
Definition

dividied into vestibule, the semicircular canals, and the cochlea

  • Vestibule: vestibule is the central portion of the bony labyrinth.
  • vestibule window: the vestibular window serves as a mebranous interface bteween the stapes from the middle ear and the vestibule of the inner ear.
  • Utricle and saccule: the membranous labyrinth within the vestibule consists of two connected sacs called the utricle and saccule. Both the utricle and saccule contain receptros that are sensitive to gravity and linear movements of the head.
  • semicircular canals: the three bony semicircular canals of the inner ear are at right angles to each other. the narrow semicircular ducts of the membranous labyrinth are located within the semicircular canals. Recpetors within the semicricular ducts are sensitive to angular acceleration and deceleration of the head, as occurs in rotational movement.

  • Cochlear duct: form the middle chamber of the cochlea. the roff of the cochlear duct is called the cestibular membrane, and the floor is called the basilar membrane. the cochlear duct is filled with endolymph and ends at the helicotrema. The cochlear duct house the spiral organ, where sound receptors transduce mechanical vibration into nerve impulse.

  • when your head is tilted back, otolith slides "downhill" distoring hair cells and give us the feeling of acceleration.
