Meninges function to protect the brain, provide framework for arteries and veins, and contain a layer of cerebrospinal fluid. There are three layers of meninges around the brain: dura mater arachnoid mater pia mater The subarachnoid space is found between the pia mater and the arachnoid mater...
Ependymal cells produce CSF (cerebrospinal fluid), which is located within the ventricles of the brain and in the subarachnoid space that surrounds the brain and spinal cord. Aside from allowing the brain to float in the skull, CSF acts as a cushion against traumaand also helps wash away some...
Role of Cerebrospinal Fluid CSF serves as a protective cushion for the brain and spinal cord, reducing the brain’s weight to prevent pressure on the skull and safeguarding against injuries. It also supplies nutrients, removes waste, and protects against infections. Dr. Naveen S. ...
What is the role and function of the brain? Briefly explain the role of the white blood cells in the human body. What are the major differences in fluid composition between cerebrospinal fluid and interstitial fluid elsewhere in the body? What is the role of water in transpiration? What is ...
