Question:
The Semcircular Canals are:
A. O
ne of the two openings in the skull bone that holds the optic nerve and artery. Along with our ears these two canals helps us understand what we hear by aiding speech reading.
B. The 363-mile waterway that connects the Great Lakes with the Atlantic Ocean via the Hudson River in upstate New York. The Semicircular canal is the reverse loop located in Rochester NY, which forms a part of that waterway.
C. A set of three loop- like structures located in the inner ear that help with spatial orientation (knowing if you are on, off, inside, outside, over, under, right, left, of an object. The object can be anything, such as a chair). The semicircular canals also aid with balance.
