The sense of equilibrium (balance) is really two senses— static equilibrium and dynamic equilibrium—that come from different sensory organs. The organs of static equilibrium (stat′ik e″kwı˘-lib′re-um) sense the position of the head, maintaining balance, stability and posture when the head and body are still. When the head and body suddenly move or rotate, the organs of dynamic equilibrium (di-nam′ik e″kwı˘- lib′re-um) detect such motion and aid in maintaining balance.arrow_forward
