acoustico-lateralis system The inner-ear region and lateral-line organs located in the skin, forming a sensory system that conveys environmental information to the brain of a fish: the lateral-line organs respond to changes in water pressure and displacement, the inner ear responds to sound and gravity.

What are three functions of the Acoustico lateralis system in fishes?

The lateral line, also called lateral line system (LLS) or lateral line organ (LLO), is a system of sensory organs found in aquatic jawed vertebrates, used to detect movement, vibration, and pressure gradients in the surrounding water.

What is the function of lateral line?

The lateral line is a sensory system that allows fishes to detect weak water motions and pressure gradients.
