Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The components of vertebrate gravity receptors include the utricle and saccule chambers of a membranous labyrinth (I), hair cells with stereocilia and kinocilium (II), and hairlike processes embedded with otolith membrane, a gelatinous membrane containing calcium carbonate crystals (III). Peripheral chemoreceptors (IV) are not components of vertebrate gravity receptors. Therefore, the correct choice is E, which includes only I, II, and III as components of vertebrate gravity receptors.
