... the two groups, suggesting that the morphological changes solely affected vestibular function. These findings support that otolith morphology can adapt to the fish’s surrounding environment, here to improve balance and manoeuvrability in complex settings. This reaffirms that otolith sagittae not only...

... their tails, many vertebrates retain and use their tails for activities such as balancing, climbing and escaping predators. This study investigates how laboratory mice ( Mus musculus ) use their tails to maintain balance when dealing with external and self-generated perturbations. Mice crossed platforms...

...A. L. Hof; S. M. Vermerris; W. A. Gjaltema SUMMARY During walking on a treadmill 10 human subjects (mean age 20 years) were perturbed by 100 ms pushes or pulls to the left or the right, of various magnitudes and in various phases of the gait cycle. Balance was maintained by (1) a stepping strategy...
