Question
Chapter 16, Problem 2TOF
Summary Introduction
To Determine:
If the given statement is true or false.
Introduction:
The parasympathetic nervous system is a type of autonomic nervous system. The purpose of the autonomic nervous system is to regulate a body's unconscious actions. The parasympathetic system functions to regulate the body actions that occur at rest, basically after eating. The nerve fibers of the parasympathetic nervous system arise from the brain and the spinal cord.

True or false : A plexopathy is suspected if the symptoms are localised to a single nerve. Patients may complain of neuropathic pains, numbness or weakness and wasting of muscles?

Please explain what cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) is, how it is made (structures involved); and discuss its complete circulation.
EXPLANATION ADDRESSING THE QUESTION ABOVE
Cerebral spinal fluid is a fluid that cushions the central nervous system and provides buoyancy to and helps nourish the brain. It circulates around the surface of the brain, interior ventricles, and surface of the spinal cord and central canal of the spinal cord. CSF is created by the ependymal cells in the choroid plexus and ventricles of the brain. CSF is made up mostly of water and also includes ions, nutrients like vitamin c and protein, and can pick up waste as it circulates. CSF circulation starts in the lateral ventricle where the choroid plexus and lateral ventricle creates or secretes the CSF. The CSF then flows through the ventricular foramen into the third ventricle. At the third ventricle, the CSF then flows through the cerebral aqueduct into the fourth ventricle. Then, the CSF exits the fourth…
