The ____________ is the most superficial membrane o(the meninges.
a. subarachnoid space
b. piamater
c. arachnoid mater
d. duramater
Introduction:
Meninges covers and protects the brain and spinal cord. It is made of three layers in mammals which are dura mater, arachnoid mater and pia mater. Cerebrospinal fluid is present between arachnoid mater and pia mater.
Answer to Problem 1PL
Correct answer:
The correct answer is option (d) dura mater.
Explanation of Solution
Explanation/justification for the correct answer:
Option (d) dura mater. Dura mater is the outermost superficial layer of meninges. It lies just next to the skull and vertebrae. It is loosely arranged with many extracellular spaces. It is a sac-like structure and envelops arachnoid mater. So, the correct answer is option (d).
Explanation for incorrect answer:
Option (a) subarachnoid space. It is the space between arachnoid mater and pia mater. It contains cerebrospinal fluid. This fluid cushions the brain and spinal cord. So, this is an incorrect option.
Option (b) pia mater. It is the third and innermost layer of meninges. It is a thin membrane that attaches to the brain and spinal cord. So, this is an incorrect answer.
Option (c) arachnoid mater. It is the second and middle layer of meninges. It is a thin membrane and the cells are tightly packed so that there is no leakage of fluid. So, this is an incorrect answer.

- We will be starting a group project next week where you and your group will research and ultimately present on a current research article related to the biology of a pathogen that infects humans. The article could be about the pathogen itself, the disease process related to the pathogen, the immune response to the pathogen, vaccines or treatments that affect the pathogen, or other biology-related study about the pathogen. I recommend that you choose a pathogen that is currently interesting to researchers, so that you will be able to find plenty of articles about it. Avoid choosing a historical disease that no longer circulates.

- One of the ways for a cell to generate ATP is through the oxidative phosphorylation. In oxidative phosphorylation 3 ATP are produced from every one NADH molecule. In respiration, every glucose molecule produces 10 NADH molecules. If a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?arrow_forwardIf a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?arrow_forwardHow do i know which way the arrows go?arrow_forward
