meninges is

A

layered tissue surrounding brain

22
Q

cerebral spinal fluid iis like a

A

liquid cushion

23
Q

what cell helps with blood brain barrier

24
Q

blood brain barrier controls

A

what passes from blood to brain

25
cranial meninges is composed of
three connective tissue layers
26
cranial meninges seperate and support _____ tissue of brain
soft
27
cranial tissues also ____ and ___ blood vessels supplying the brain
enclose and protect
28
what is cranial meninges relationship with CSF
helps contain and circulate CSF
29
what are the three layers of meninges
pia maater, arachnoid mater, dura mater
30
whats the deepest meninge
pia mater
31
the most superficial meninges
dura mater
32
order of meninges from deepst to outermost(superficial)
pia mater (deepest) arachnoid mater(middle) dura mater(outermost)
33
pia mater touches the
the brain
34
pia mater is made of
thin layer of areolar connective tissue
35
pia mater is also very nutritive for the brain and there are lots of
blood vessels
36
arachnoid mater
37
arachnoid mater makes projection that look like spider webs called
arachnoid trabeculae
38
arachnoid trabeculae extend to
pia mater through subarachnoid space
39
subarachnoid space contains
cerebrospinal fluis
40
arachnoid mater is made of
collagen and eleastic fibers
41
subdural space is potential space that can fill with blood if
a vein is ruptured
42
dura mater is very
tough
43
there is a _______ space between dura and skull
epidural
44
dura mater has _ layers
2
45
2 layers of dura mater are
meningeal layer (deeper layer) periosteal layer (superficial layer)
46
dura mater is made of
dense irregular connective tissue
47
what forms on internal surface of cranial bones
periosteum
48
epidural space is also in
spoinal chord
49
if a pregnant woman gets an epideral it would be in the
epidural space of spinal cord.
50
epidural space contains
arteries and veins
