This part of the brain is where balance and coordination is controlled.

What is the cerebellum?

300

When the sympathetic nervous system fires, your pupils do this.

What is dilate?

300
Vibration of sound waves causes opening of this channel on these types of cells.

What is the potassium channel on hair cells?
