CSF occupies the subarachnoid space (between the arachnoid mater and the pia mater) and the ventricular system around and inside the brain and spinal cord. It fills the ventricles of the brain, cisterns, and sulci, as well as the central canal of the spinal cord.

A B
Cell A is the rod cell found evenly all over retina
Cell A is the cone cell more concentrated in the fovea central is
Cell B is concerned with colour vision in bright light
Cell A is sensitive to low light intensities

| a) Salivary glands | Stimulate Secretion | Inhibit Secretion |
| b) Pupil of the eye | Dilate | Constricts |
| c) Heart rate | Decreases | Increases |
| d) Intestinal peristalsis | Stimulates | Inhibits |
Unidirectional transmission of a nerve impulse through nerve fibre is due to the fact that
nerve fibre is insulated by a medullary sheath
sodium pump starts operating only at the cyton and then continues into the nerve fibre
neurotransmitters are released by dendrites and not by axon endings
neurotransmitters are released by the axon endings and not by dendrites.
