The three structures that protect the Central Nervous System are Bone‚ Meninges and Cerebral Spinal Fluid. 3. Cerebrospinal fluid comes from the blood and circulates throughout the CNS before returning to the blood capillaries. CFS is a clear‚ watery fluid containing a few cells and some glucose‚ protein‚ urea and salts. Occupies the space between the middle and inner layer of the meninges. It

the brain that carries nerve impulses to and from the body along with blood vessels. All vertebrates have spinal and cranial nerves associated with the brain and spinal cord. Also many systems are needed to maintain and control features of the body. For example the endocrine‚ autonomic‚ and peripheral systems are needed for full normal function of the animal. The ability to process information is very important. This involves the brain stem‚ many motor nerve cells‚ basal ganglia‚ and other important

Abnormal test results could signal the presence or development of an open neural tube defect i.e. spina bifida‚ etc. Fetal maturation includes a process called neurulation in which the neural tube (tube that connect brain to central nervous system) develops and eventually closes in on itself to ensure the growth of other neural tissue. In open neural tube defects‚ the neural tube does not close typically resulting in death of the fetus. As amniocentesis is a serious procedure to

connections called synapses. The human brain is the command centre for the human nervous system. It receives input from the sensory organs and sends output to the muscles. Parts of the Human Brain Ventricles are the 4 cavities in the brain. • The ventricles of the brain are a communicating network of cavities filled with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) produced by choroid plexus. • CSF is the tissue fluid of the central nervous system (CNS). • (CSF) bathes and cushions the brain and spinal cord within their

Shunt Placement diverts the flow of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from a site within the central nervous system (CNS) to another area of the body where it can be absorbed as part of the circulatory process. For some people‚ hydrocephalus treatment can
