Detailed explanation-1: -The membranous labyrinth is a group of ducts and chambers filled with endolymphatic fluid. It is located within the bony labyrinth and can be subdivided into the vestibular labyrinth and cochlear labyrinth. The vestibular labyrinth contains two sacs (utricle and saccule) and three semicircular canals.

Detailed explanation-2: -Endolymph is the fluid contained in the membranous labyrinth of the inner ear.

Detailed explanation-3: -Endolymph is a physiological fluid that fills the inner ear’s labyrinth and serves crucial sensory functions. Vibrational waves transmitted following the displacement of this fluid from outside stimuli convey information about sound, position, and balance to central sensory neural structures.

Detailed explanation-4: -Within the bony labyrinth is a membranous labyrinth, which is also divided into three parts: the semicircular ducts; two saclike structures, the saccule and utricle, located in the vestibule; and the cochlear duct, which is the only part of the inner ear involved in hearing.

Detailed explanation-5: -The membranous labyrinth is encased in bone and contains a fluid called endolymph. When the head moves, the endolymph also moves. This causes nerve receptors in the membranous labyrinth to signal the brain about the body’s motion.
