Cupula Cristae Ampulla
Sensory cell (Hair cell) Kinocilium Stereocilia Stimulation Inhibition Afferent vestibular nerve fibers
The Utricle and Saccule ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
The vestibule of the labyrinth
Otolithic  membrane Hair cell Anatomy: Maculae of Utricle or Saccule Physiology: Linear acceleration of head
Types of Equilibrium ,[object Object],[object Object],Rotational movement
Stimulus to the vestibular sensory organs ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Stimulus to the vestibular sensory organs
Dynamic Equilibrium ,[object Object],[object Object],Ampulla
Dynamic Equilibrium ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Dynamic Equilibrium ,[object Object]
Otolithic  membrane Hair cell Mechanism of Stimulation in Utricle & Saccule 1- Linear acceleration of head or changes of head position  2- Shift of position of otolithic membrane 3- Deflect stereocilia to or away from kinocilium 4- Stimulation or inhibition
Linear Acceleration Stimuli ,[object Object],[object Object]
[object Object],Linear Acceleration Stimuli Nerve Action Potential ,[object Object],NOTE : It is important to understand that the maculae is responsible for the  change  in acceleration only. Because the hair cell can adapt it quickly
Static Equilibrium ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Maculae in Saccule & utricle Saccule Utricle

Function of vestibular reflexes ,[object Object],[object Object]
Vestibulo-Ocular Reflex (VOR) STIMULUS = Head movement Efferent =  oculomotor nerves Effector =  Extra-ocular muscles Sensory =  Vestibular HC Afferent =  vestibular nerve Center
Vestibulo-Spinal Reflex (VSR) STIMULUS = Gravity linear acceleration Efferent =  Spinal nerves Effector =  Neck and body muscles Sensory =  Vestibular HC Afferent =  vestibular nerve Center
