c. vestibule
d. otoliths

Answer 1

Semicircular canals

Step-by-step explanation:

Ear is one of the important sense organ responsible for hearing and equilibrium. Human ear is divided into three parts: outer ear, middle ear and inner ear.

Inner ear is mainly responsible for the equilibrium of the body. Vestibular apparatus together with semicircular canals is responsible for the dynamic equilibrium of the body. Dynamic equilibrium involves head rotation and vertical movements of the body.
