Question
brain ventricles
the lateral ventricles are connected to the third ventricle via what?
ependymal cells
cerebral aqueduct of sylvius
interventricular foramina
medial aperture
Brief Explanations
- Ependymal cells line the ventricles and produce cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), but they do not connect the lateral ventricles to the third ventricle.
- The cerebral aqueduct of Sylvius connects the third ventricle to the fourth ventricle.
- The interventricular foramina (also known as the foramina of Monro) are the channels that connect the paired lateral ventricles to the single third ventricle.
- The medial aperture (foramen of Magendie) is one of the openings that allow CSF to flow from the fourth ventricle into the subarachnoid space.
