What is the fluid that provides protection to the brain?

  1. Blood

  2. Cerebral Spinal Fluid

  3. Lymph

  4. Serum

The correct answer is: Cerebral Spinal Fluid

Cerebral Spinal Fluid (CSF) plays a critical role in protecting the brain. It acts as a cushion, surrounding the brain and spinal cord, which helps to absorb shocks and reduce the risk of injury from impacts. In addition to its protective functions, CSF also contributes to the maintenance of a stable environment for the brain, facilitating the removal of waste products and delivering nutrients. The other options do not fulfill this specific protective role. Blood circulates nutrients and oxygen but does not provide cushioning. Lymph is part of the immune system and assists in fluid balance, while serum is the liquid remaining after blood has clotted and does not provide direct support or protection to the brain. Thus, Cerebral Spinal Fluid is uniquely suited for this protective function.
