Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The membranes that protect the brain and spinal cord are called meninges. They consist of three layers: dura mater, arachnoid mater, and pia mater. These membranes provide a physical barrier, cushioning, and support to the central nervous system. Mucous membranes line various cavities and canals of the body, such as the respiratory and digestive tracts. Synovial membranes line the cavities of freely movable joints. Cutaneous membranes refer to the skin.
