As we have learnt:

Third ventricle or Diocoel:

  • The third ventricle is a narrow (unpaired) cavity that lies between the cerebral hemispheres. 

  • Specifically, this ventricle lies in the diencephalon where it is enclosed laterally by the hypothalamus and thalamus.

  • The third ventricle is connected to the fourth ventricle through the cerebral aqueduct (aqueduct of Sylvius).

Hence, the correct answer is option d.
