Serous membranes line certain cavities within the anterior body cavity. This statement is FALSE.

Serous membrane, also known as serosa in anatomy, is a silky tissue membrane made of mesothelium that lines the interior of bodily cavities and their contents. It secretes serous fluid to permit greased sliding motions between friction surface. Organs housed in body cavities that don't open up to the outside are covered by serous membranes that line the body cavities. The epithelium secretes a thin coating of serous fluid that coats serous membranes.

An indication of a serous membrane is the lining of the thorax. The pleura is the name for the serous membrane found in the thorax. The visceral pleura, the innermost layer, is on the lungs, whereas the parietal pleura, the outermost layer, is on the interior layer of the thorax.

Claim and evidence:

puteri [66]

It would happen that the effectiveness of an original vaccine could become less if there was a mutation in the virus that caused the protein spike to change because the antibodies created would not be specific for the new virus.

<h3>What would happen to the mutated virus?</h3>

Vaccines trigger an immune response to fight disease-causing organisms, a mutation in the virus to be fought would change the effectiveness of this immune response, as the specificity would not be the same with the mutant virus.

With this information, we can conclude that The immune response would not be specific for the new virus that caused the protein spike to change.
