Meninges- three layers of connective tissue
1) Dura Mater: tough top layer
2) Arachnoid Mater: middle; collagen/elastic fibers; spiderweb effect

During cardiac arrest, unconsciousness will occur rapidly once the heart stops beating, typically within 20 seconds. Deprived of the oxygen and sugars it needs to function, the brain will be unable to deliver the electrical signals needed to sustain organ function, including breathing
Answer:
Bacillus cereus
Explanation:
Bacillus cereus is a bacteria associated with foodborne infection (which is what happened to the children exposed in the question). These bacteria usually grow on rice that has not been properly cooled or heated.
The poisonings caused by Bacillus cereus result from the ingestion of food contaminated with the microorganism and / or the enterotoxins it produced during its growth. The poisonings associated with this microorganism are usually of short duration and not severe. However, several sporadic outbreaks and cases have been reported.
