Solution

The correct option is B Metacoel
The 4th ventricle or the metacoel is present between the medulla and pons region of the brainstem and the cerebellum. It extends from the cerebral aqueduct into the central canal of the brainstem and the spinal cord. The paracoels are the lateral ventricles located in the cerebral hemispheres. The diocoel is located in the diencephalon.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Metacoel'
