Influence of semicircular canal morphology on the VOR and swimming activity in larval amphibians: a comparative study in Xenopus and axolotl

Influence of semicircular canal morphology on the VOR and swimming activity in larval amphibians: a comparative study in Xenopus and axolotl

Gaze stabilization and locomotion rely often on an accurate sensory detection of head movements by the vestibular system. A functional relationship between vestibular sensitivity, locomotor skills and semicircular canal morphology has been suspected in vertebrates as an adaptation to eco-physiologic...
