The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify the Structures**: The question asks about the lining of the brain ventricle and the central canal of the spinal cord. - The brain ventricles are hollow spaces filled with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). - The central canal is the central lumen of the spinal cord, also containing CSF. 2. **Determine the Type of Lining**: We need to find out what type of tissue lines these structures. - The lining of the brain ventricles and the central canal is specialized for the functions associated with CSF. 3. **Recall the Options**: The options given are: - Endothelium - Mesothelium - Neurosensory - Ependyma 4. **Analyze Each Option**: - **Endothelium**: This is the lining of blood vessels, not relevant here. - **Mesothelium**: This lines the body cavities and organs, not applicable to the brain ventricles or spinal canal. - **Neurosensory**: These are cells associated with the nervous system but do not line the ventricles or central canal. - **Ependyma**: This is the correct lining that surrounds the brain ventricles and central canal. 5. **Conclusion**: The lining of the brain ventricle and the central canal of the spinal cord is called **Ependyma**. **Final Answer**: Ependyma ---
