Function of the Epithalamus?
its main function is to house the pineal gland (part of the endocrine system), which secretes melatonin. it also contains the choroid plexus of the third ventricle in the brain which forms cerebral spinal fluid.
The choroid and the auricle are similar because?
The choroid and auricle are similar because one collects light and the other collects sound.
Is choroid the pigmented layer of the eye?
false. the choroid is the opaque middle layer of the eye that contains blood vessels and provides the blood supply for the entire eye.
Which structure forms the CSF?
The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is produced from arterial blood by the choroid plexuses of the lateral and fourth ventricles by a combined process of diffusion, pinocytosis and active transfer. A small amount is also produced by ependymal cells. The choroid plexus consists of tufts of capillaries with thin fenestrated endothelial cells. These are covered by modified ependymal cells with bulbous microvilli.

What is the function of choroidea?
The choroid, also known as the choroidea or choroid coat, is the vascular layer of the eye, containing connective tissue, and lying between the retina and the sclera. The human choroid is thickest at the far extreme rear of the eye (at 0.2 mm), while in the outlying areas it narrows to 0.1 mm.[1] The choroid provides oxygen and nourishment to the outer layers of the retina. Along with the ciliary body and iris, the choroid forms theuveal tract.
What are choroid bodies?

Choroid Plexuses
What is the function of the dark pigmented in the choroid?
The Melanin of these cells absorbs excess light and helps keep the inside of the eye dark.
