You are walking to class, pondering the intricacies of physiology, when you trip over an uneven place in the sidewalk and fall. Unhurt but embarrassed and angry, you jump up and glance around to see if anyone is watching. From your knowledge of neuroanatomy and function, explain how the following areas of the brain might be involved in this scenario:
cerebrum
cerebellum

You tell her the following: Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is formed as a filtrate of blood at the level of a choroid plexus. It passes through ependymal cells to the space between the arachnid mater and pia mater. Once it has traveled around the periphery of the brain within this space between those two meninges, the CSF then accumulates in the third ventricle. Once there, it passes to the fourth ventricle via the cerebral aqueduct and then travels via the central canal to the spinal cord. It is finally reabsorbed by the arachnoid granulations. The cerebrospinal fluid is turned over about three times every 24 hours. What error did you make in this description?
