Summary Introduction
To explain:
Ampulla detects what types of movement and what is the process of detection.
Concept introduction:
The word meaning of ampulla is bottle shaped. Ampulla is an enlarged area of the semicircular canal present in ear. Crista ampullaris is the part of ampulla, and remain covered with hair cells (stereocilia) and supporting cells (kinocilia).
