21
Body membranes 2 basic types: 2 basic types: 1. Mucous – oral, nasal cavities, tubes of resp., repro., urinary & digestive sys. (cavities that enter & exits the body) 2. Serous – thoracic & abdominopelvic cavities, covering of viscera (pleura, pericardium, peritoneum) * Mesenteries are double folds of peritoneum that connect the parietal to visceral peritoneum.
