tunica intima
The mesothelium is also called what?
Serous tissue
What is the serous membrane called in digestive tract?
visceral
Where does the venous sinuses of the brain lie?
The venous sinus o fthe scalp are those of the superior sagittal sinus. TO read more about it check the meninges. The dural venous sinus is below the cranium, fibrous and serous dura and the endothelium
Where do you find the serous membrane called the pericardium?
around the heart
Is blood drained from brain by a set of dural sinuses?
Yes. Fibrous - Serous dura matter - endothelium - dura venous sinus - endothelium - serous - arachnoid matter ....so then the answer is really No, it is between the 2 layers of the dura.
Endothelium and mesothelium?
Endothelium provides a slick, friction-reducing lining in lymphatic vessels and in all hollow organs of the cardiovascular system- blood vessels and the heart. Mesothelium is the epithelium found in serous membranes, the membranes lining the ventral body cavity and covering its organs.
Simple squamous tissue that lines the heart blood vessels and lymphatic vessels is called what?
it is called Endothelium (endothelial layer) composed of simple squamous epithelium forming a countinuous barrier.
What type of epithelium is found lining internal body compartments and blood vessels?
These are usually simple squamous epithelial cells. The epithelium lining the body cavities is called the mesothelium and is where the cancer mesothelioma arises from. The epithelium lining arteries and veins is called endothelium.
What is a single thin layer of endothelium called?
tunica intima
What serous membrane that covers abdominal organs is called?
Well, it is called a serous membrane. Each serous membrane has an additional, more specific, name, depending on its location: These would include:Parietal peritoneumVisceral peritoneumParietal pleuraVisceral pleuraParietal pericardiumVisceral pericardiumEpicardiumMessentaries
The mesothelium is also called what?
Serous tissue
This type of membrane lines a body cavity that does NOT open directly to the outside?
Serous membraneA serous membrane also called the serosa is the type of membrane that lines cavities that do not open to the outside of the body.
What is the serous membrane called in digestive tract?
visceral

The venous sinus o fthe scalp are those of the superior sagittal sinus. TO read more about it check the meninges. The dural venous sinus is below the cranium, fibrous and serous dura and the endothelium
Where do you find the serous membrane called the pericardium?

What is the serous membrane that is the external layer of a GI tract organ?
Because internal organs are called viscera, the portion of the serous membrane that attached to an organ is called the visceral layer.
