Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Meninges are three layers of membranes that cover and protect your brain and spinal cord (your central nervous system [CNS]). They’re known as: Dura mater: This is the outer layer, closest to your skull. Arachnoid mater : This is the middle layer.

Detailed explanation-2: -Dura Mater The outermost mater of the meninges, the dura, is composed of two layers: the periosteal layer that lies closest to the calvarium and the meningeal layer that lies closest to the brain tissue. These together contribute to the dura being a thick, dense, fibrous membrane that is quite inelastic.

Detailed explanation-3: -The meninges are the layers that are closely present around the brain. The dura mater is an outermost tough and fibrous layer. It closely lines the cranium. It is followed by the arachnoid mater that forms the middle meninx. The piamater is the innermost meninx which adheres closely to the surface of the brain.

Detailed explanation-4: -Dura mater The most superficial meninx, which forms a tough, leathery outer covering. It attaches to the periosteum of the skull.
