Detailed explanation-1: -Serous membranes have two layers. The parietal layers of the membranes line the walls of the body cavity (pariet-refers to a cavity wall). The visceral layer of the membrane covers the organs (the viscera). Between the parietal and visceral layers is a very thin, fluid-filled serous space, or cavity.

Detailed explanation-2: -The serous membrane (serosa) is a thin membrane that covers the walls and organs of the ventral cavity (which is made up of the thoracic cavity and the abdominopelvic cavity). The portion of the serous membrane that covers the walls of the cavity is called the parietal serosa.
