Yes. It circulates through the ventricles and within the spinal cord. You can detect subarachnoid hemorrhage via spinal tap (amongst other methods) as there will be a presence of blood in the fluid.

Where is cerebrospinal fluid?

Cerebrospinal fluid is found in the ventricles of the brain (which are inside the cerebral cortexes and the cerebellum) as well as flowing around the meninges of the brain and spinal cord (on the outside of both structures).

Why air from outside goes through the vents in your Chevy astro van when air conditioning is on?

You have the system set to allow outside air to circulate into the vehicle. You can change this to the recirculate mode which will only circulate inside air. Look for the button to change the setting.

What is the difference between the atria and the ventricles of the heart?

The atria are the two upper chambers in the heart, and they receive blood entering from outside of the heart. The ventricles are the two lower chambers of the heart and they each receive blood from an atrium and then send it out of the heart.


When you use the fan option on your central air unit does it draw air from the outside or circulate the air already inside?

It recirculates the air inside. If it brought in humid outside air, you would shortly have a meganormous mold problem.


Where does extracellular fluid content come from?

Extracellular fluid is composed of the lquids in the body that are not inside the cells, that is called intracellular fluid. The fluids outside are either plasma, cerebrospinal fluid, lymphatic fluid, or interstitial fluid.


What is the job the three meninges (membranes) that cover the brain?

The meninges consist of three layers of tissue between the skull and the brain and the spinal cord. From outside to inside : dura mater, arachnoid mater and pia mater. The inner two layers are filled with cerebrospinal fluid.


Why are the sides of the 'stevenson screen' louvered?

The sides of a Stevenson screen are louvered to allow air to circulate freely around the temperature and humidity sensors inside. This design helps prevent the sun's direct rays from hitting the sensors and affecting the accuracy of the readings. The louvered sides also help to reduce the impact of thermal radiation on the inside of the screen.


Why density of most substances decreases when heated?

Well, the only endocrine organ found in the roof of the Third Ventricle is the PINEAL GLAND. The Third Ventricle is a passageway of Cerebrospinal Fluid from outside of the brain to the inside. It is located on the posterior (back) portion of the brain.


How can hydrocephalus pass from person to person?

It can not. Hydrocephalus is not contagious. It develops with genetic diseases and disorders in an unborn child or newborn, and it can develop in adults who have certain disorders that prevent the proper flow of cerebrospinal fluid from where it is stored in the ventricle cavities inside the skull to outside the skull where it can be eliminated. Cerebrospinal fluid surrounds the brain and spinal cord and is circulated around the brain to cushion and protect the spinal cord and brain, to remove certain waste products, and to supply nutrients. This fluid moves from one ventricle (storage cavities) to other ventricles. Normally excess fluids will drain from the brain and get absorbed by other tissues. When there is blockage that stops the circulation or emptying process, the fluid can gradually build up and put pressure on the brain and become symptomatic with dementia, disruption in nerve signals and other problems caused by improper function of the Central Nervous System.
