why are utricle and saccule perpendicular to each other?how can this enable them to maintain equilibrium in vertical position of the head?

What's a utricle? What's a saccule?

I believe that they are perpendicular because they sense linear motion. Utricle sensing horizontal linear motion motion and the saccule sensing vertical linear motion.
