The double-layered membrane surrounding the heart is called the pericardium. The pericardium is a thick, membranous sac that secretes a lubricating liquid. There is a thin inner layer that sits directly on and is attached to the surface of the heart, called the epicardium. There is a very small space, which usually has a very small amount of fluid, called the pericardial space, and a tough outer layer called the pericardium (peri = around and cardium = heart).
What else can I help you with?
The internal layer of the tissue in the heart is the epicardium?
Epicardium is the outer layer of heart tissue. When considered as part of the pericardium, it is the inner layer, continuous with the serial layer.
Is it true that the internal layer of the tissue in the heart is the epicardium?
Yes, the prefix in the word epicardium, epi- means outer, which in this case is the outer layer of the heart.

What are the three main tissues in a heart?
The heart is made of muscle, connective, epithelium, and nervous tissue.
What is the tissue that lines the outer layer of the inner surface of an artery?
Connective Tissue
What is the transparent tissue that covers the heart called?
The pericardium. It is composed of two layers: the fibrous pericardium (the outer layer that is made of tough connective tissue) and the serous pericardium (the inner layer in which serous fluid provides lubrication for the heart to beat with almost no friction).
Is the epicardium a fat tissue or a nerve tissue?
The epicardium is a layer of the heart's outer wall that is primarily composed of connective tissue, rather than fat or nerve tissue. It serves as a protective covering for the heart and contains blood vessels, lymphatics, and nerve fibers.
What is the outer layer of growing tissue that surrounds the expanding phloem tissue in trees?
Xylem
What makes up the wall of the heart?
The wall of the heart is made up of three layers: the epicardium (outer layer), the myocardium (middle layer made of muscle tissue), and the endocardium (inner layer lining the chambers of the heart). These layers work together to enable the heart to efficiently pump blood throughout the body.
The outer covering of the heart?
The heart is encased in two protective layers. The outer layer -- the pericardium -- covers the heart. It folds in on itself at the aorta forming the epicardium of the heart. Between these layers is a small amount of fluid (10-50 ml) that affords the layers a non-stick surface.
Why is the pain worse after removal of outer layer of a blister?
