Answer 3

c? because The way dizziness makes you feel — such as the sensation of vertigo, a feeling of faintness or feeling as if you've lost your balance — provide clues for possible causes. Specific triggers, such as certain activities or positions, may give clues as to the underlying cause of your dizziness. The duration of any dizziness episodes and any additional symptoms you feel can also help pinpoint the exact cause.

Answer 4

Right, the semicircular canals are filled with a fluid and specialized cells that allow you to know in which direction you are moving, which can cause dizziness and balance.

By the way, although this is true, in actuality you get more information and more affective information from your sight. Which is why when you see, say, a ballerina they try and keep looking at a point while doing spins--it helps counteract this phenomena

Answer 5

The inner ear has a vestibular system which is made up of a network of tubes, called the semicircular canals, plus the vestibule. The vestibular system also contains special sensory cells, but here they detect movement instead of sound.
