Synovial membranes line the cavities of certain joints (such as the knee, hip, and shoulder joints) and secrete synovial fluid, which lubricates and reduces friction between the bones during movement. Visceral membranes line the organs within the body cavities, mucous membranes line the respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive tracts, serous membranes line the walls of various body cavities and cover the organs within those cavities, and cutaneous membranes refer to the skin.
