Pleural layer running the walls of the thorax?
The pleural layer is a thin membrane that lines the walls of the thorax and covers the lungs. It consists of two layers - the parietal pleura (lining the chest wall) and the visceral pleura (covering the lungs). The space between these layers is the pleural cavity, which contains a small amount of fluid to reduce friction during breathing.
What reduces the friction between the lungs and the walls of the thorax?
The pleural fluid reduces the friction between the lungs and the walls of the thorax by lubricating the pleural surfaces. This fluid allows the lungs to move smoothly during respiration without causing friction or resistance.
What Pleural fluid in the human body contained between?
Each lung lies within the pleural cavity within which the lung expands. The pleural cavity is lined by two transparent elastic membranes called the pleura/pleural membranes. The inner pleuron covers the lung the outer pleuron is in contact with the walls of the thorax and the diaphragm. A thin layer of lubricating fluid between the pleural membranes allows them to glide over each other when the lungs expand and contract during breathing. So your answer is the pleural fluid lies between the pleural membranes.
