<h2>Visceral pleura</h2>
Explanation:
The portion of the serous membrane that covers and adheres to the lung is called visceral pleura
- Pleura are the pair of membranous linings surrounding the lungs
- The visceral pleura covers each lung surface, and the parietal pleura covers the inner surface of the thoracic cavity
- The visceral pleura is a delicate membrane which dips into the fissures between the lobes of the lung
- Pleura allows the lungs to move inside the body cavity without friction as friction would cause damage to the lungs and the tissue in the chest wall
