He sense of equilibrium responds to movements of the head. It is divided into two types--static and dynamic equilibrium. Describe and give an example of these two types of equilibrium. Select all the statements that accurately describe equilibrium.

A. Static equilibrium monitors head position when the body is not moving.

B. Dynamic equilibrium monitors angular or rotational movements of the head when the body is moving.

C. An example of static equilibrium occurs when nodding one's head "yes."

D. An example of dynamic equilibrium occurs when a figure skater spins.

E. Static equilibrium monitors angular or rotational movements of the head when the body is moving.

F. Dynamic equilibrium monitors head position when the body is not moving.

G. An example of static equilibrium occurs when a person is asleep.

H. An example of dynamic equilibrium occurs when shaking one's head "no."
