There is no such thing as the pericardial cavity. The visceral pericardium is the outer layer of the heart, and also called the epicardium. The lining on the inside of the pericardium is called the parietal pericardium.

What cavity is the parietal pleura found in?
The parietal pleura is in the thoracic cavity, lining the inner chest wall atop the diaphragm.
What is the outermost layer of the wall of the lungs consists of the?
The parietal pleura covers the wall of the chest and is made of mesothelium cells.
Where is the parietal pleura found?
The portion of the pleura external to the pulmonary pleura lines the inner surface of the chest wall, covers the diaphragm, and is reflected over the structures occupying the middle of the thorax
What is the function of the pleura membrane in a pig?
The pleural cavity (with an outside pleural membrane) surrounds both the pleural and pericardial cavities. The fetal pig tissues are thin and easily cut. The parietal pleura is a serous membrane which surrounds the lungs. It is like a thin film, and can be somewhat difficult to remove and isolate. The parietal pleura is on the thoracic cavity wall.
What is a a dividing wall of two cavities?
Parietal
What cavity is the parietal pleura found in?
The parietal pleura is in the thoracic cavity, lining the inner chest wall atop the diaphragm.
The most superficial wall of the pleural cavity is lined with what?
parietal pleura: visceral pleura
What is the layer of serous membrane that is firmly attached to the surface of the lung?
Well there are two layers of membranes that line the interior of the lungs. The outer layer of the lungs is the parietal pleura and is attached to the chest wall. The visceral pleura is the inner of the two layers, and unlike the parietal pleura, the visceral pleura is not sensitive to pain. ~hope this is helpful.
What is between the visceral pleura and parietal pleura?
The difference between these two pleura is that the parietal pleura is the outtermost covering of the lung which is adhered to the inner thoracic wall, while the visceral pleura is the lining which is directly adhered to the lung itself. The space between these two pleuras is know as the pleual cavity.

How is Pleural fluid contained?
Pleural fluid is contained between the parietal pleura and chest wall.

Name and describes the two layers of the pleura?
Visceral and parietal visceral- covers the lungs, thin serous membrane parietal- lines the inner chest wall and covers diaphram
What membranes are associated with the lungs and the thoracic walls?
the lungs are protected with a db layer serous membrane. 1: is the superficial layer called the Parietal pleura that line the walls of the thoracic cavity. 2: The deeper layer is the visceral pleura, which cover the lungs themselves. In between the both membranes is a small space(cavity)filled with pleurisy to reduce friction.
What is the name of the membrane that surrounds the lungs?
pleura but their are different types of pleura but im not sure if there's more than one._____Yes, there are more than one type of pleura. Immediately surrounding the lobes of the lungs is visceral pleura. There is also a layer of parietal pleura that surrounds both the lungs and their visceral pleura. Between the visceral and parietal pleura is a potential space that contains a thin layer of mucoid liquid, that some refer to as synovial fluid, although it is not true synovial fluid. This fluid allows the two layers of pleura to slide easily against one another when the lungs inflate and deflate during respiration.
