The overaccumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain ventricles or subarachnoid space is called hydrocephalus ("water on the brain"). Hydrocephalus can be caused by a blockage or reduction of normal drainage of CSF from the brain ventricle at the arachnoid granulations. What potential problem could develop if this condition is not treated promptly?

Brain Mass The brain mass of a human fetus during the last rimester can be accurately estimated from the circumference of the head by $m(c)=\frac{c^{3}}{100}-\frac{1500}{c}$ where $m(c)$ is the mass of the brain (in grams) and $c$ is the circumference (in centimeters) of the head. Source: Early Human Development. (a) Estimate the brain mass of a fetus that has a head circumference of 30 $\mathrm{cm} .$ (b) Find the rate of change of the brain mass for a fetus that has a head circumference of 30 $\mathrm{cm}$ and interpret your results.
