The CSF(cerebrospinal fluid ) is produced at a rate of 500 ml/day. Since the brain can contain only 135 to 150 ml, large amounts are drained primarily into the blood through arachnoid granulations in the superior sagittal sinus. Thus the CSF turns over about 3.7 times a day.

If extremity is blue can you get an IV in that arm?

Yes, but it will not help very much. An IV near the intersection area of good circulation and poor circulation will do better as the reason for the blue color is lack of circulation. If there is no circulation there is no moving of fluid, an IV will just fill the local area and not be carried to all tissues.


What is body fluid circulation?

Blood and lymph these are the two circulating fluids


What is the function of the arachnoid villi?

it reabsorbs cerebrospinal fluid and returns it to the venous circulation


What is the Coelom function?

Coelomic fluid, in some organisms, acts like a hydrostatic skeleton. The pressure from the fluid aids in osmoregulation and circulation.


A circular flow of warmer fluid and colder fluid is called?

This circular flow is called a convection current. It occurs when warmer fluid rises and displaces colder fluid, creating a continuous circulation pattern. Convection currents play a key role in various natural phenomena, such as ocean currents and atmospheric circulation.


Why doesnt convection occur when a beaker is heated at the top?

Convection occurs when heated fluid rises and cooler fluid sinks, creating a continuous circulation. If a beaker is heated at the top, the heated fluid near the top would rise but due to cooler fluid at the bottom, the circulation does not sustain itself, thus preventing convection from occurring.


What statement refer to convection?

Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of a fluid (liquid or gas). This process occurs when warmer fluid rises and cooler fluid sinks, creating a continuous circulation pattern. It is a key mechanism in various natural phenomena, such as ocean currents and atmospheric circulation.


What is the difference between a vortex and circulation?

A vortex refers to a swirling motion of fluid around an axis, while circulation is the flow of fluid around a closed path or loop. Vortex typically has a more localized and concentrated flow, whereas circulation often involves a broader distribution of flow around a system.


What is heat convection?

Heat convection is the process of heat transfer through a fluid (liquid or gas) due to the movement of the fluid itself. As the fluid is heated, it becomes less dense and rises, while cooler, denser fluid sinks to take its place. This creates a circulation pattern that helps distribute heat within the fluid.


Maintenance of proper levels of intercellular fluid is most closely associated with?

systemic circulation


Tissue fluid is returned to circulation through the what?

Tissue fluid is returned to circulation through the lymphatic system, where it is collected in lymph capillaries and transported back to the bloodstream through lymphatic vessels.


What controls the pump which moves the water through the heater core on a 2000 Chevy venture?

The heater core is part of the heating and cooling system, and it is the circulation of the radiator fluid that supplies heat to the core. The water pump on the car is what is responsible for the circulation of radiator fluid.
