yes, the parietal pleura is a serous membrane. So is the visceral pleura for that matter, and the peritoneum as well.

What membrane lines the inside of the chest cavity?
Squamous. See Related Links.
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 the difference between visceral and parietal serous membrane?
Visceral serous membranes line organs. Parietal serous membranes line cavities.
Why are the kidneys not surrounded by serous membrane?
parietal surrounds the organs
What is the pleural membrane?
The pleural membrane is a double-layered serous membrane found in the thoracic cavity. The outer layer is called the parietal pleura and lines the thoracic wall, and the inner layer is called the visceral pleura and covers the lungs. The membranes produce lubricating serous fluid that causes them to adhere closely to one another. This holds the lungs to the thoracic wall allowing easier movement during breathing.

What type of membrane provides lubrication to the pleural pericardial and peritoneal cavities?
Serous Membrane
Membrane that has parietal and visceral layers?
A serous membrane (or serosa)
WHAT is the difference between visceral and parietal serous membrane?
Visceral serous membranes line organs. Parietal serous membranes line cavities.
The outer layer of a serous membrane?
The parametrium
Which membrane has parietal and visceral layers?
serous pericardium.
The serous membrane on the lung surface is called the what?
Pleural Cavity is the body cavity that surrounds the right and left lung. The pleura is a serous membrane which folds back to form a two-layered, membrane structure. The thin space between the two pleural layers is known as the pleural cavity; it normally contains a small amount of pleural fluid. The outer pleura parietal pleura is attached to the chest wall. The inner pleura, visceral pleura covers the lungs and adjoining structures.
Parietal pleura is a serous membrane where?
the inner lining of the lung
Why are the kidneys not surrounded by serous membrane?
parietal surrounds the organs
The serous membrane covering the inner surface of the heart is the what?
parietal pericardium
