Ventricular System
|
interconnected CSF-filled chambers of the CNS
*shock absorber and medium for the exchange of materials |
|
|
Choroid Plexus
|
rich, network of blood vessels lining ventricles, secretes CSF

|
|
Cerebrospinal Fluid
|
nourishes, protects CNS; in arachnoid space and venticles
|
|
|
Lateral Ventrical
|
lateral portion of system within each hemisphere of the brain
|
|
|
Third Ventrical
|
midlin; conducts CSF from lateral centricles to fourth ventricle
|
|
|
Cerebrospinal Fluid
|
nourishes, protects CNS; in arachnoid space and venticles
|
|
|
Fourth Ventrical
|
the passageway within the pons that receives CSF from the third ventricle and releases it to surround the brain and spinal cord
|

|
Central Canal
|
chamber that runs through the spinal cord
|
|
|
Third Ventrical
|
midlin; conducts CSF from lateral centricles to fourth ventricle
|
|
|
Spinal Cord
|
receives sensory infor from body below head to brain, sends moto commands to PNS from brain meninges, spinal nerves, spinal fluid, blood vessels and a cusion of fat tissue.
Provides two way conduction routes to/from afferent/efferent the brain and serves as the relex center for all spinal reflexes. |
