CSF flows out of those cavities into the (C) ventricular space, which sits deep to the dura mater and is held open by strands of tissue called arachnoid (D) villi . This space surrounds the brain and the spinal cord and carries waste from the CNS to the circulatory system. After circulating around the brain and spinal cord, CSF drains back into the circulatory system in spaces called (E) subarachnoid space .arrow_forward
