Solution

The correct option is A A - Vestibular apparatus, B - Cochlea
The vestibular system, in vertebrates, is part of the Inner ear. In most mammals, the vestibular system is the sensory system that provides the leading contribution to the sense of balance and spatial orientation for the purpose of coordinating movement with balance.
The cochlea is a portion of the Inner ear that looks like a snail shell. It receives sound in the form of vibrations into nerve impulses that are taken up to the brain to be Interpreted by stereocilia.
