Solution

The correct option is B Vestibular apparatus
Sensory information about motion, equilibrium, and spatial orientation are provided by the vestibular apparatus, which in each ear includes the utricle, saccule, and three semicircular canals. The utricle and saccule detect gravity (information in a vertical orientation) and linear movement.
So, the correct option is 'Vestibular apparatus'.
