There are three membranes beneath the skull, what are they called? (numerous answers)
Dura Mater
Arachnoid Meninx
Pia Mater Meninx
Subarachnoid Meninx
In what order do the meninges appear?
Dura mater, arachnoid meninx, pia mater meninx
Arachnoid meninx, subarachnoid meninx, pia mater meninx
Aracnoid meninx, dura mater, pia mater meninx

The Dura Mater is the hardest membrane protecting the brain.
True
False
The Pia Mater is the softest membrane protecting the brain.
True

The sinus structures in the brain are important because they drain away the cerebral spinal fluid.
True
False
What are the physical structures that protect the brain from mechanical injuries? (numerous answers)
Skull
Meninges
Cerebrospinal fluid
The blood brain barrier
The blood brain barrier provides chemical protection for our brains. It cannot combat mechanical injuries but it can prevent harmful chemicals from entering the brain.
The blood brain barrier provides chemical protection for our brains. It cannot combat mechanical injuries but it can prevent harmful chemicals from entering the brain.
How does the blood-brain barrier prevent harmful chemicals from entering the brain?
The blood-brain barrier forms tightly packed cells along the blood vessel walls of the central nervous system in order to prevent entry of many large molecules. This can be helpful as it prevents harmful chemicals from damaging the brain but can also serve as unhelpful when trying to introduce helpful molecules into the brain to combat disease/ disorders.
