Solution
The correct option is C Sound and equilibrium. Statio-acoustic receptors are meant for both sensory functions, i.e., hearing (sound) and maintenance of body balance (equilibrium) of the body. These receptors generate stimuli in response to sound and gravity. The function of stato-acoustic receptor is hearing and balancing.
