👉 Since fluid, also known as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), is a clear, colorless liquid that surrounds and protects the brain and spinal cord within the central nervous system. This fluid serves multiple essential functions: it cushions these delicate structures from physical shocks, maintains a stable chemical environment, and facilitates the removal of waste products. Produced by the choroid plexus within the ventricles of the brain and the arachnoid granulations in the dura mater, CSF circulates through the ventricular system, spaces surrounding the brain and spinal cord, before draining into the lymphatic-like structures called arachnoid villi. This continuous flow ensures optimal function and health of the nervous system.
