The loose-fitting sac around the heart is called the pericardium, which is lined by a membrane known as the serous pericardium. This serous membrane consists of two layers: the visceral layer, which is in contact with the heart, and the parietal layer, which forms the outer wall of the pericardial sac. Between these layers is the pericardial cavity, which contains a small amount of fluid that helps reduce friction during heartbeats.
