No, the sense of balance does not occur in the ossicles. The ossicles are the three tiny bones in the middle ear (malleus, incus, stapes) that transmit sound vibrations from the eardrum to the inner ear for processing sound. The sense of balance is maintained by structures in the inner ear called the vestibular system.

What detects changes of internal or external stimulus?
sense of balance
What part of the brain gives the body its sense of balance?
The fluid in the inner ears; the reason why you get dizzy when you spin around is because the fluid is sloshing around.
Can conduction deafness result from the fusion of the ossicles?
Conduction deafness can occur anytime there is a disruption of the transmission and amplification of the sound vibrations by the auditory ossicles from the tympanic membrane to the oval window. This disruption can occur as trauma or a bony outgrowth to the ossicles themselves that would cause fusion or fixation of the ossicles.
Do you have a sixth sense?
I think that our sixth sense is balance!
What will occur if the endocrine system is out of balance?
If the endocrine system is out of balance, the body is out of balance and illness results.
Where does the sense of balance occur?
The sense of balance occurs in the inner ear, specifically in the vestibular system. This system includes the semicircular canals and otolith organs, which contain fluid and sensory cells that help detect changes in head position and movement. This information is then sent to the brain to maintain equilibrium and coordination.
What bony plates make up starfish skeleton?
It is the ossicles :)
What aids your sense of balance?
ears
What organs of the body involved in the sense of balance?
The ear is responsible for a human's sense of balance. Balance is basically determined by the amount of fluid found in one's inner ear.
What is fusion of the ossicles?
Fusion or fixation of the ossicles is where one or more of the three auditory ossicles cannot transmit sound vibrations for a variety of reasons. This does cause "conduction" deafness or hearing loss.
What are ambulacral ossicles?
In a starfish, the ambulacral ossicles are little calcified bony plates covering the radial canal.
Does the brainstem control your sense of balance?

What control your sense of balance?
