A
kinesthesis
B
vertigo
C
vestibular sense
D
Inner ear balance
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Through your sense of kinesthesis, you can tell where different parts of your body are located, even if your eyes are closed or you are not looking at your body. For example, when you are riding a bicycle, receptors in your arms and legs send information to the brain about the position and movement of your limbs.

Detailed explanation-2: -Proprioception allows individuals to detect joint motion and limb position when their eyes are closed. Like most of the simple sensations, proprioception has distinct sense organs and ascending pathways in the spinal cord.

Detailed explanation-3: -Kinesthesia is the awareness of the position and movement of the parts of the body using sensory organs, which are known as proprioceptors, in joints and muscles. Kinesthesia is a key component in muscle memory and hand-eye coordination. The discovery of kinesthesia served as a precursor to the study of proprioception.
