As we have learnt- 

 

Cerebrospinal Fluid:

  • The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a clear watery nutritional fluid containing sodium chloride, potassium, glucose, and various proteins.

  • It fills the space between the arachnoid and pia mater of the central nervous system (CNS), the ventricles of the brain and the central canal of the spinal cord. 

  • It is secreted by the choroid plexuses.

  • In addition to providing nutritional supply to the brain, the CSF also removes by-products of metabolism and also serves to provide a fluid cushion to protect the brain from injury

Hence, the correct answer is option d.
