Question
1. Reflex turning of the head is enabled by the
vestibulo-cervical reflex
vestibulo-ocular reflex
2. A sagittal section divides body space into
top and bottom
left and right
3. A frontal section divides body space into
front and back
left and right
4. A horizontal section divides body space into
front and back
top and bottom
5. Any object moving through space (such as an animal’s head) has six degrees of freedom. Three of these are translational. This means that motion can occur along the x-, y-, or z-axis. Simply put, this means moving forwards or backwards, moving sideways, ore moving up and down. The remaining three degrees of freedom are rotational, i.e. roll, pitch, and yaw. The primary sensory input for motion of the head is enabled by the
left and right retina in combination with cranial nerve pair II
left and right vestibular apparatus in combination with cranial nerve pair VIII
6. Translational motion is detected by the neuroepithelia of the
otolith organs
ampullae within the semicircular canals
7. Rotational motion is detected by the neuroepithelia of the
otolith organs
ampullae within the semicircular canals
Explanation / Answer
1- by vestibulo-ocular reflex
2- left and right because it divide in verticle plane
3- front and back i.e. ventral and dorsal respectively
4- top and bottom divide into two i.e. ventral is cut by harizontal plane
