ah ah! @myschool..the eardrum(tympanum) is not for balance,its the first site of vibration which is later converted to nerve impulse by the cochlea..the semi-circular canals,utriculus,sacculus are found in the LABYRINTH(inner ear) it is filled with fluid called ENDOLYMPH..the answer is tympanum..please@myschool rectify this..

The typanum(ear drum) is located in outer ear which comprises with the pinna and auditory meatus(presence of hairs and also an ubication for secretion of cerumen-ear wax)....This portion does not contains any fluid substance.

The others in the option are situated in the inner ear....The inner ear contains a complex of bony passageways called bony labyrinth filled with a fluid called perilymph.And within these passageways are membraneous sacs and tubes(membraneous labyrinth) filled with another fluid called Endolymph.....

so the exact conspectus is that the CORRECT answer is C

The answer is C tympanum, the utriculus, sacculus and semi-circular canals are all used in balance meaning they contain endolymph. But the tympanum wich is used in hearing does not contain endolymph

the inner the inner ear called labyrinth contains cochlea,three semi circular canal , sacculus and utricculus which is filled wi a fluid called perilymph. tympanic membrane is found between the outer ear and middle ear it only for producing vibration. : option is more correct 🥱
