saccule and utricleの例文

• The other two sensory organs supplied by the vestibular neurons are the maculae of the saccule and utricle.
• They contain the sensory hair cells and otoliths of the macula of utricle and duct that connect the saccule and utricle.
• The saccule and utricle detect different motions, which information the brain receives and integrates to determine where the head is and how and where it is moving.
• In mammals, otoliths are small particles, composed of a combination of a gelatinous matrix and calcium carbonate in the viscous fluid of the saccule and utricle.
• The semicircular canals, of which there are three recognizing accelerations in pitch, yaw, and roll, are stimulated by angular accelerations; the otolith organs, the saccule and utricle, are stimulated by linear accelerations.
• The type of motion or attitude detected by a hair cell depends on its associated mechanical structures, such as the curved tube of a semicircular canal or the calcium carbonate crystals ( otolith ) of the saccule and utricle.
