In other words, the statolith shifts as the animal moves.
Each of the four statolith is oval and is located at the base of each rhopalium.
The researchers studied one of the squid's smallest features, a bonelike particle called a statolith that is not much larger than a grain of sand.
Any movement large enough to throw the organism off balance causes the statolith to brush against tiny bristles which in turn send a message to the brain to correct its balance.
The age of a giant squid can be determined by " growth rings " in the statocyst's statolith, similar to determining the age of a tree by counting its rings.
