Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The vestibular sense is responsible for our sense of balance and orientation and is located in the inner ear. When Marvin was on his boat all day, his vestibular sense was constantly being stimulated by the motion and movement of the boat. When he returned to land, his brain had to readjust to the lack of movement and his sense of balance may have been temporarily altered, causing him to feel wobbly.
