a lymphatic system
an environment of neurons

Question 20

Pathway of CSF

Answer 20

Right/Left Lateral ventricle –> Interventricular foramen of monro –> Third ventricle –> cerebral aqueduct of Sylvius –> Fourth ventricle –> 2 Foramen of Lushcka, One Foramen of Magendie –> Subarachnoid space –> Arachnoid granulations –> CSF is reabsorbed and passes through the lateral lacunae –> drains into superior sagittal sinus –> into the venous system
