👉 Fluid, also known as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), is a clear, colorless, and slightly yellowish liquid that circulates within the central nervous system (CNS), comprising the brain and spinal cord. It acts as a protective cushion, reducing the impact of physical shocks and maintaining optimal temperature and chemical balance around these delicate structures. Produced by the choroid plexus within the ventricles of the brain, fluid bathes the brain and spinal cord, facilitating nutrient exchange and waste removal. It also plays a crucial role in cushioning the brain against mechanical forces, supporting the health of neural tissues, and aiding in the removal of metabolic waste products.
