STRUCTURE OF THE MACULA UTRICULI WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO DIRECTIONAL INTERPLAY OF, SENSORY RESPONSES AS REVEALED BY MORPHOLOGICAL POLARIZATION
The anatomy of the labyrinth and the structure of the macula utriculi of the teleost fish (burbot) Lota yulgaris was studied by dissection, phase contrast, and elcctron microscopy. The innervating nerve fibcrs end at the bottom of the sensory cells where two types of nerve cndings are found, granula...
