Definitions:

Semicircular Canals

Structures in the inner ear that are part of the vestibular system, helping to control balance and spatial orientation by detecting rotational movements.

Maculae

Specialized structures in the vestibular system of the inner ear, involved in sensing linear acceleration and gravity.

Static Equilibrium

The condition in which a physical system is at rest or its center of mass moves at a constant velocity, showing no net change in motion.

Otoliths

Small crystals in the inner ear that contribute to the sense of balance by responding to gravity and movement.
