What function reabsorbs cerebral spinal fluid back into the blood?
arachnoid granulations Normally the pressure of the CSF is higher than that of the venous system, so CSF flows through the arachnoid villi and granulations into the blood
What drains cerebrospinal fluid in to venous blood in the dural sinus?
The Cerebrospinal Fluid is absorbed into the venous blood in the dural sinuses through the arachnoid villi. Arachnoid villi connect the subarachnoid space to the superior sagittal sinus.
Where does Cerebrospinal fluid enter the bloodstream?
arachnoid granulations
What is ventral sub arachnoid space?
arachnoid space
What meninges form the loose mid layer brain covering?
Arachnoid mater
What are symptoms of arachnoid granulation?
headache

What causes arachnoid cysts?
Arachnoid cysts arise mainly because of an abnormality occurring in development, sometimes as a result of a neonatal (newborn) infection. Other cysts are congenital (present at birth).

Which layer of the meninges resembles a spider web?
The middle element of the meninges is the arachnoid membrane
Where does Cerebrospinal fluid enter the bloodstream?

What is an Arachnoid?
An arachnoid is an alternative term for an arachnid.
What is ventral sub arachnoid space?
arachnoid space
The subarachnoid space lies between what two layers of meninges?
pia and arachnoid
How can arachnoid cysts be classified?
Arachnoid cysts can be classified according to their location and by the type of tissue making up the cyst wall (arachnoid connective tissue or glioependymal tissue).
What are the methods of granulation?
There are two types of granulation they are Wet Granulation and Dry Granulation.Wet granulation and dry granulation depends on the type of fertilizer granulators and whether adding water during granulation.In general, Roll Extrusion Granulator(Azeus Fertilizer Machinery) is dry granulation machine. It requires moisture of raw materials less than 40% and no water added during granulation. So, it's compound fertilizer granules are also dry, in long-stick shape.But, as for New-type Granulator(organic fertilizer by Azeus Fertilizer Machinery) and Pan Granulator (both organic and compound fertilizer), with required a low moisture of raw materials, water must be add during granulation. Or, the fertilizer granulation will fail.
What meninges form the loose mid layer brain covering?
Arachnoid mater
