a.
To describe:
a. The location and way through which cerebrospinal fluid is formed. b. its subsequent circulation, and c. location and the way through which it is reabsorbed into vascular system.
Concept introduction:
The cerebrospinal fluid is a fluid present in the spinal cord and the brain. There are several functions performed by the cerebrospinal fluid. The cerebrospinal fluid provides the buoyancy to the brain and reduces its weight. The cerebrospinal fluid provides protection to the delicate organs. It maintains the chemical balance and also removes the wastes from the brain.
