Answer:

C

Explanation:

The meninges are the membranous tissues that cover the spinal cord and the brain, providing support and protection to these organs. They are of three layers.

A) The Dura mater

B) The arachnoid mater

C) The pia mater

The Dura is the outermost meningeal layer and lies directly under the vertebral column bones and skull. The subdural space is the space between the Dura mater and the Arachnoid mater.

The Arachnoid mater lies in the middle of the Dura and Pia mater. Under the Arachnoid layer is the subarachnoid space which contains the cerebrospinal fluid. The cerebrospinal fluid acts as a shock absorber and a cushion to the brain and spinal cord.

The Pia mater lies under the subarachnoid space and directly on the spinal cord and brain and is highly vascularised.
