Exam 1: Ventricles and Cerebrospinal Fluid Flashcards
•Recall the material covered in Gross Anatomy concerning circulation, CSF and meninges. •Identify the components of the ventricular system and adjacent brain structures. •Identify the cisterns around the brain in brain slices or MRI/CT images. •Compare the composition of CSF to blood. •List the general functions of the structures that surround the ventricles.

A. Arachnoid mater; endosteal layer of the dura mater
B. Endosteal layer of the dura mater; pia mater
C. Meningeal and endosteal layers of the dura mater
D. Meningeal layer of the dura mater; Arachnoid mater
