Question 1

Correct Answer:

Verified

Serous fluid is an extremely thin,slippery,watery layer situated between the visceral and parietal pleura.This fluid is produced by the cells of the membrane to lubricate around the organs and reduce friction as the lungs move against adjacent structures.Excess fluid around the lungs puts pressure on the lungs and can impair the lubricating function of the serous membranes,making it harder for these membranes to reduce friction.
