membranous labyrinth

From the vesicle certain diverticula are given off which form the various parts of the membranous labyrinth.

They contain a clear fluid, the perilymph, in which the membranous labyrinth is situated.

The membranous labyrinth is also the location for the receptor cells found in the inner ear.

Endolymph is the fluid contained in the membranous labyrinth of the inner ear.

They have a membranous labyrinth containing otoliths and similar in structure to that of the gnathosomes.

Vestibular structures may be recognizable in some cases; in others there is no membranous labyrinth.

The membranous labyrinth, a system of membranes in the ear, contains a fluid called endolymph.

The membranous labyrinth runs inside of the bony labyrinth.

The inner ear has two parts: the bony labyrinth and the membranous labyrinth.

The main disadvantage is profound deafness in the operated ear due to violation of the membranous labyrinth.

It is associated with dilation of the membranous labyrinth (endolymphatic hydrops) in the ear.

The inner ear comprises two specialized regions of the membranous labyrinth: the saccule and the utricle.

The auditory vesicle will give rise to the utricluar and saccular components of the membranous labyrinth.

As vibrations compress the bones of the skull, pressure is put on the otic capsule and the membranous labyrinth.

It primarily functions as a diffusion barrier, allowing nutrients to travel from the perilymph to the endolymph of the membranous labyrinth.

The membranous labyrinth does not completely fill the bony labyrinth, but is partially suspended in it in a fluid (the perilymph).

Between the outer wall of the membranous labyrinth and the wall of the bony labyrinth is the location of perilymph.

The receptors for the senses of equilibrium and hearing are housed within a collection of fluid filled tubes and chambers known as the membranous labyrinth.

Domenico Cotugno discovered that the membranous labyrinth contains fluid, the endolymph, and on its walls the ramifications of the acoustic nerve are distributed.

Fluid waves occur in the endolymph in the various parts of the membranous labyrinth in response to fluid waves in the perilymph.

The membranous labyrinth is contained within the bony labyrinth, and within the membranous labyrinth is a fluid called endolymph.

Within the osseous vestibule, the membranous labyrinth does not quite preserve the form of the bony cavity, but consists of two membranous sacs, the utricle, and the saccule.

Beginning in the fifth week of development, the auditory vesicle also gives rise to the cochlear duct, which contains the spiral organ of Corti and the endolymph that accumulates in the membranous labyrinth.

It transmits a small vein, and contains a tubular prolongation of the membranous labyrinth, the ductus endolymphaticus, which ends in a cul-de-sac between the layers of the dura mater within the cranial cavity.

When the mouth of the auditory pit is closed, and thus a shut sac, the auditory vesicle (or otic vesicle), is formed; from it the epithelial lining of the membranous labyrinth is derived.
