Tectorial membrane does not belong in the group because it is a structure of the cochlea in the inner ear, while the rest - Crista ampullaris, Semicircular canals, and Cupula - are structures of the vestibular system in the inner ear involved in balance and spatial orientation.
Scarpa's fluid.
During rotational acceleration, the cupula moves in the opposite direction of head rotation due to inertia, causing the hair cells to bend and trigger a signal to the brain indicating movement. During deceleration, the cupula moves in the direction of head rotation, also activating the hair cells to signal changes in movement.
The ampulla is a structure in the inner ear that is part of the semicircular canals. It contains hair cells that help detect movement and changes in head position, which is important for maintaining balance and orientation. When the head moves, the fluid in the semicircular canals stimulates the hair cells in the ampulla to send signals to the brain about the body's position in space.
The cristae ampullaris are found in the semicircular canals of the inner ear. They are specialized sensory structures that are involved in detecting rotational movements of the head and helping with balance and equilibrium.

Saccule and utricle"Static" means stationary or at rest. the 4 functions are vestibular nerve, ampulla, cupula, and otoliths
The middle ear, outer ear, and inner ear are the three parts of the ear.
It is just between your external ear and your middle ear.
there is the inner ear, middle ear, and the outer ear. i had an ear infection
You have external ear, middle ear and the internal ear. You have the auricle and the ear canal is there in the external ear. Then you have a ear drum, that separates external ear from the middle ear. In the middle ear, you have three tiny bones. Eustachian canal is there in the middle ear. Then you have oval and round window to separate the middle ear from internal ear. In the internal ear, you have vestibulocochlear apparatus and the vestbulocochlear nerve is there.
The visible part of the ear is called the pinna or auricle. It is the outermost portion of the ear that collects sound waves and directs them into the ear canal.
