Question

Which part of the body helps us in maintaining balance?

Answer 1

Hint:It is a biological system that allows us to know where our bodies are in the environment and they further maintain a particular position.
Normally the balance of the body depends on information from the inner ear and other senses such as sight and touch and muscle movement and they also include the directions of motion.

Complete answer: The body's balance system works through a constant process of
1. Position detection
2.Feedback and adjustment using communication between the inner ear, eyes, muscles, joints, and the brain.
3.Deep inside the ear, positioned just under the brain, is the inner ear.
The ear is a sensory organ that picks up sound waves that allow us to hear.
The vestibular apparatus lining in the inner ear balances the body.
It is mainly made up of three semicircular canals and two otolith organs, also known as the utricle and the saccule.
The vestibular apparatus is located in the internal ear, above the cochlea and it also helps in maintaining body balance.
Crista and macula are the sensory spots of the vestibular apparatus controlling dynamic equilibrium.

So, the correct option is Vestibular apparatus.

Note: Information coming from the vestibular system is processed in the brain and then sent on to other organs that need this information, such as the eyes, joints, or muscles.
In some situations, for example on a ship or airplane, different sensory organs, for example, the eyes and the organ of balance send opposite messages to the brain.
