(B). Arachnoid
(C). Neurotransmitters
(D). Pia mater

• A. (A), (B), and (D) only.
• B. (A) and (D) only.
• C. (A), (B), (C), and (D).
• D. (A), (C), and (D) only.

Hint:

Remember the sequence of meninges: dura mater (outermost), arachnoid (middle), and pia mater (innermost).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Cranial meninges are protective layers encasing the brain and spinal cord. They consist of:
- Dura mater: A tough, protective outer layer.
- Arachnoid: The web-like middle layer, providing cushioning.
- Pia mater: A delicate inner layer, adhering tightly to the brain's surface.
Neurotransmitters are distinct from meninges; they are chemical signals facilitating communication within the nervous system.
