Brain is protected by Cranium (also known as brain box)
Spinal cord is protected by the vertebral column
Huzaifabh0:
The spinal cord (and brain) are protected by three layers of tissue or membranes called meninges, that surround the canal . The dura mater is the outermost layer, and it forms a tough protective coating. Between the dura mater and the surrounding bone of the vertebrae is a space called the epidural space.

Answer: Brain: It is protected by the bony box-cranium, also called as skull. Also the membranes that surround the brain (meninges) are filled with cerebrospinal fluid that act as shock absorbers protecting the brain. Spinal cord: The vertebral column, commonly called backbone, protects the spinal cord.
