Saccule: Communicates with: Hairs of macula project _____________________ when head is straight Ampulla: Communicates with: Hairs of crista ampullaris project ____________________when head is in a still position Describe the physical features of the macula and its hair cells. Include how gravity stimulates hair cell response. Describe the physical features of the crista ampullaris and its hair cells. Include how movement stimulates hair cell response. Draw a picture of the macula with head straight up and head bent forward. Draw a picture of the crista ampullaris when still and when in motion.

10 Static Equilibrium Static Equilibrium: Balance when still Location: The organs of static equilibrium are located within the vestibule
11
11 Inside the vestibule are two expanded chambers: Utricle: communicates with the saccule and the semicircular canals Saccule communicates with the cochlear duct Static Equilibrium
12
12 The utricle and saccule each have a small patch of hair cells and supporting cells called a macula (mack-u-lah) on its wall Has hair cells act as sensory receptors Responds to changes in head position Gravity stimulates hair cells to respond Static Equilibrium
13
13 When is head is upright: Utricle: hairs of macula project vertically Saccule: hairs of macula project horizontally Head upright Static Equilibrium
14
14 The hairs contact a sheet of gelatinous material that have crystals of calcium carbonate embedded on its surface These add weight making it more responsive to changes in position Static Equilibrium
15
Gravity stimulates hair cells to respond This usually occurs when the head bends forward, backward or to one side The sagging of the gel material cause the hair cells to bend
16
Static Equilibrium This causes a nerve impulse to generate Travels to the CNS by means of the vestibular branch of the vestibulocochlear nerve This informs the brain of the head’s position
17
Static Equilibrium
18
Static Equilibrium: Vestibule The brain responds by sending motor impulses to skeletal muscles, and they may contract or relax appropriately to maintain balance
19
What would happen if the brain did not respond by sending signals to maintain balance?
20
20 Dynamic Equilibrium Dynamic Equilibrium is balance when in motion Location: The organs of dynamic equilibrium are located within the semicircular canals
21
21 Inside the semicircular canals are swellings of membranous labyrinth called ampulla (am-pu-lah) Communicates with the utricle of the vestibule Dynamic Equilibrium
22
22 The ampulla houses a sensory organ called the crista ampullaris Has hair cells that react to rapid movement of head or body Responds to changes in head position Movements in different directions affect different combinations of semicircular canals Dynamic Equilibrium
24
This causes a nerve impulse to generate Travels to the CNS by means of the vestibular branch of the vestibulocochlear nerve The brain interprets as movements in different directions Dynamic Equilibrium
26
The brain responds by sending motor impulses to skeletal muscles, and they may contract or relax appropriately to maintain balance Allows brain to predict the consequence of rapid body movements, allowing the skeletal muscles to maintain normal balance Dynamic Equilibrium
28
28 Macula Also participates in the sense of dynamic equilibrium Aids the brain in detecting movements such as falling or maintaining posture while walking Dynamic Equilibrium

On the top ½ of p. 64 Write a summary on motion sickness What is it? Cause? Names of disorders associated with motion sickness Treatment options 31 Motion Sickness
32
Disturbance of the inner ear’s sensation of balance Cause not 100% known Theory: Occurs when visual information contradicts the inner ear’s sensation that one is motionless Ex: Woman in a car. Her inner ears tell her she is not moving. Her eyes tell her that she is. Brain reacts by signaling a “vomiting center” in the medulla oblongata Top ½ of P. 64: Write a summary about what causes motion sickness
