Definition of statolith in English:

statolith

nounˈstatəʊlɪθˈstadəˌliTH

Zoology

1A calcareous particle in the statocysts of invertebrates that stimulates sensory receptors in response to gravity, so enabling balance and orientation.
Example sentencesExamples
- Thus, a model for gravitropism in stem-like organs is proposed in which F-actin modulates the gravity response by actively participating in statolith repositioning within the endodermal statocytes.
- The head is analogous to a statolith, the movements of which are monitored by fields of hair sensilla located on the head, neck, and prothorax.
- They have these little statoliths or balance organs in the back of their head and we can section those and look under a microscope and have daily rings just like tree rings in a tree stump.
- The combination of the statocysts and the statolith aids the mussel in maintaining equilibrium by sensing gravity.
- The sagittal section contains the statolith and the internal structure of the two lens eyes.
