Q

functions of CSF

A

buoyancy, protection, and envionmental stability

22
Q

CSF allows for buoyancy by

A

reducing brain weight by 95%

23
Q

CSF allows for protection by

A

providing a liquid cushion

24
Q

CSF allows for envionmental stability by

A

transporting nutrients/wast and protecting against fluctuations

25
CSF produced by
choroid plexus
26
choroid plexus is in each
ventricle
27
ependymal cells and blood capillaries regulate
CSF from choroid plexus
28
Blood plasma is filtered through ______ and modified by ______
capillary ependymal cells
29
Compared to plasma, CSF has more____ and _____; less ____, ____, ____
sodium and chlorin; potassium, carbon, glucose
30
ependymal cell secretions and interstitial fluid from subarachnoid space help make up
cerebrospinal fluid
31
CSF is continually _____ and _____
formed and reobsorbed
32
Excess CSF flows into _______ and drains into ____
rachnoid villi ; dural venous sinuses
33
An ______ is a collection of these villi
arachnoid granulation
34
functions of blood brain barrier
Regulates which substances enter brain’s interstitial fluid Helps prevent neuron exposure to harmful substances such as drugs BBB composed of specialized capillaries * Endothelial cells are connected by many tight junctions * Walls have a thick basement membrane * Wrapped by perivascular feet of astrocytes BBB reduced in certain locations for functional reasons * Choroid plexus needs to produce CSF * Hypothalamus and pineal gland need to secrete hormones 23
35
what are some drugs that can pass blood brain barrier
alcohol
36
BBB composed of specialized
capillaries
37
Endothelial cells of BBB are connected by many
tight junctions
38
Walls of BBB cappilaries have a _____ membrane BBB reduced in certain locations for functional reasons
thick basement
39
capilarries of BBB are wrapped by
perivascular feet of astrocytes
40
BBB reduced in certain locations for functional reasons like
Choroid plexus needs to produce CSF * Hypothalamus and pineal gland need to secrete hormones
41
BBB astrocytes connect neurons to blood supply by
using perivascular feet to attach to capillaries to make junctions
42
cerebrum is the origin of
all complex intellectual functions
43
cerebrum has how many hemispheres
2
44
cerebrum is the center of
intelligence and reasoning though, memory and judgement voluntary control of skeletal muscle conscious perception of senses
45
left and right hemisheres of cerebrum are called
cerebral hemispheres
46
in between cerbral hemispheres is the
longitudinal fissure
47
at a few locations white matter______ connect the hemispheres
tracts
48
the largest tract that provides connection between hemispheres is called
corpus callosum
49
Each hemisphere interacts with ____ side of body
opposite
50
what hemisphere is speech normally located
left
51
Some higher-order functions exhibit
cerebral lateralization
52
cerebral lateralization
primarily controlled by one side of the brain
