Dear jonesy6250-ga; Thank you for allowing me an opportunity to answer your interesting question. Here are several forms of connective membranes: SUPERFICIAL FASCIA: Location: between the skin and muscles Purpose: adipose tissue stores fat. PERIOSTEUM: Location: covers each bone Purpose: contains blood vessels that enter the bone. PERICHONDRIUM: Location: covers cartilage Purpose: contains capillaries and is the only blood supply for cartilage. SYNOVIAL: Location: lines joint cavities Purpose: secretes synovial fluid to prevent friction. DEEP FASCIA: Location: covers each skeletal muscle Purpose: anchors tendons. MENINGES: Location: covers the brain and spinal cord Purpose: contains cerebrospinal fluid. FIBROUS PERICARDIUM: Location: forms a sac around the heart Purpose: protection. I hope you find that my research exceeds your expectations. If you have any questions about my research please post a clarification request prior to rating the answer. Otherwise I welcome your rating and your final comments and I look forward to working with you again in the near future. Thank you for bringing your question to us. Best regards; Tutuzdad-ga ?
