Serous membrane
serous membrane
The serous membrane lines certain cavities in the body. It makes up the pleura, which lines the chest cavity, and the pericardium, which covers the heart.
An inflammation of the two layers of the thin, sac-like membrane that surrounds the heart. This membrane is called the pericardium, so the term pericarditis means inflammation of the pericardium.
The membranes from superficial to deep are: A sac-like structure called pericardium. It is comprised of two parts - the outer fibrous pericardium and an inner double-layered membrane itself made up of parietal and visceral pericardium.
The pleura cover and protect the lungs in a fetal pig.
What is the type of macromolecule that makes up most of the membrane structure?
Fibrous pericardium and serous pericardium. The serous pericardium is made up of an outer parietal layer that is fused to the fibrous pericardium and an inner visceral layer (aka epicardium) that is a layer of the heart wall and adheres tightly to the heart.
A double layer of phospholipids makes up the plasma membrane.
The heart is a muscle that pumps blood throughout the body. In humans, it is made up of four chambers and enclosed in a sac called the pericardium.

The pericardium of a cat is arranged around the spinal nerves. The pericardium is made up of various fibrous tissues in felines.
