extremely important in mobile organs (pumping heart and churning stomach)

SEREOUS FLUID

18
Q

is not only misleading but also inaccurate

A

Epithelial Membranes

19
Q

it cover surfaces

A

Body Membranes

20
Q

it form protective (and often lubricating) sheets around organs

A

body membranes

21
Q

it line cavities

A

Body Membranes

22
Q

LAYERS OF SEROSA

A

Parietal Layer
Visceral Layer

23
Q

line fibrous capsules surrounding the joints, providing a smooth surface and a lubricating fluid.

A

Synovial Membranes

24
Q

lines all body cavities that open to the exterior – hollow organs of the respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive tracts.

A

Mucous Membrane

25
Q

lines body cavities close to the exterior (except the dorsal and joint cavities).

A

Serous Membrane

26
Q

lines of the wall of the ventral activity. Folds in on itself to form the visceral layer which covers the outside of the organs in that cavity

A

Parietal Layer

27
Q

LOCATIONS of Connective Tissue Membranes

A
  1. Joint Capsule
  2. Bursa
  3. Tendon Sheath
28
Q

most membranes – mostly bathed in secretions

A

Mucous Membrane

29
Q

Mucosae contain either stratified squamous epithelium (mouth and esophagus) or simple columnar epithelium (digestive tract)

A

Mucous Membrane

30
Q

occurs in pairs.

Serous Membrane

31
Q

parts of cutaneous membrane

A

Epidermis
Dermis

32
Q

refers only to the location of the epithelial membranes NOT their cellular make-up.

A

Mucosa

33
Q

serosa lining abdominal cavity covering its organs

A

Peritoneum

34
Q

serous layers are separated by a clear fluid serous fluid that is secreted by both membranes.

A

Serous Membrane

35
Q

specific names of serous membranes depend on their locations

A

SEREOUS FLUID

36
Q

superficial layer composed of keratinizing stratified squamous epithelium

A

Epidermis

37
Q

surrounds the heart.

A

Pericardia

38
Q

surrounds the lungs.

A

Pleurae

39
