The hair cells of the utricle and saccule are clustered in?

Andesite has small crystals because?
Andesite has small crystals because it cools quickly.
Do igneous rocks have small crystals large crystals or no crystals?
It depends on the type of igneous rock. Intrusive igneous rocks such as granite have large crystals, extrusive igneous rocks may have small crystals as in basalt or no crystals as in pumice.
Are large crystals found in diorite?
diorite crystals are large and andesite crystals are small
Does basalt have small crystals or big?
Since basalt is extrusive it cools quickly and forms small crystals.
What factor determines if an igneous rock has no crystals small crystals or large crystals?
it depends on the heat, if it cool very quick then it has small crystals but if it cool very slowly than it is bigger the slower the cooling period the bigger the crystals
Sites of the maculae?
otoliths and vestibular nerve
