WhaT one of the major closed body cavities contains connective tissue membranes?
Cranial cavity - serous membranes dorsal cavity = the back ventral cavity - has the thoracic cavity which contains the lungs(parietal pleura and visceral pleura membranes) and the heart (parietal pericardium and visceral pericardium membranes), the abdominal cavity (parietal peritoneum and visceral peritoneum membranes) and the pelvic cavity which is also peritoneum membranes)
What cavity is in the abdominal cavity and between the parietal and visceral peritoneum?
The peritoneal cavity is the space between the visceral and parietal peritoneum in the abdominal cavity.
What is between the parietal pleura and the visceral 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.
What is the serous membrane in the abdominopelvic cavity?
The pleura is the serous membrane of the thoracic cavity.
Innermost layer of the pleura is known as?
Visceral pleura

The parietal pleural represents a serous membrane?
yes, the parietal pleura is a serous membrane. So is the visceral pleura for that matter, and the peritoneum as well.
What cavity is in the abdominal cavity and between the parietal and visceral peritoneum?
The peritoneal cavity is the space between the visceral and parietal peritoneum in the abdominal cavity.
Has parietal and visceral layers?
Parietal membrane is the lining of a body cavity. Visceral membrane is the covering of each organ in a body cavity.
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.
Does parietal pleura line the ethoracic wall?
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 is inflammation of the linning of the thoracic cavity called?
pleurisy
What are the main structural and functional units of the lungs?
Actually, the structure of the lunge is make up Visceral pleura, Parietal pleura, and Pleural cavity
What separates the parietal and visceral pericardium?
pericardial cavity

What is the difference in parietal and visceral peritoneum?
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.

The pleura is the serous membrane of the thoracic cavity.
