Q

peritoneum

A
  • the serous membrane forming the lining of the abdominal cavity
  • covers most of the intra-abdominal (or coelomic) organs
  • composed of a layer of mesothelium supported by a thin layer of connective tissue
  • this peritoneal lining of the cavity supports many of the abdominal organs and serves as a conduit for their blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and nerves.
60
Q

femoral sheath: composed of which layers
