- connective tissue

What is the epithelial membrane also called?

covering and linking membranes

What are the types of membranes in the Epitheilial membrane

- cutaneous

- mucous

- serous

What is the epithelial layer of the epithelial membrane attached to?

underlying layer of connective tissue

What 2 layers is the cutaneous membrane composed of?

- epidermis (top)

- dermis (underneath)

What is the epidermis layer of the cutaneous membrane composed of

stratified squamous

what is the dermis layer of the cutaneous membrane composed of

dense irregular connective tissue

What is the cutaneous membrane exposed to

- air

- is a dry membrane

What is the mucous membrane composed of

- epithelium resting of loose(areolar) connective tissue membrane

What is the loose(areolar) connective tissue membrane called

lamia propria

where is the mucous membrane located in the body

- body cavities

- respiratory

- digestive

- urinary

- reproductive

what are mucous membrane bathed in

- secretion

- urinary mucosae

what does the mucous membrane contain

- stratified squamos

- simple comunar

what is the serous membrane composed of

layers of simple squamous resting on areolar connective tissue

what are the locations of serous membranes

line compartments of ventral body cavity

what are the pairs that occur in serous membrane

- parietal

- visceral

What does the Parietal layer line

specific portion of ventral body cavity

What dies the Visceral layer cover

the outside of the organs in the cavity

What does Serous fluid allow to happen in the serous membrane

allows organs to slide across the cavity walls without friction or pain

Location of Peritoneum

abdominal cavity/organs

Location of Pleurae

surround lungs

Location Pericardia

around the heart
