Question

Three tissue layers responsible for protecting the brain and spinal cord. What makes meningitis so dangerous compared to other diseases

Answer 1

In between the skull and brain are three layers of tissue, called meninges. They protect the brain. The strong, outermost layer is named the dura mater. The middle layer, the arachnoid mater, is a thin membrane made of blood vessels and elastic tissue. It covers the entire brain. The pia mater is the innermost layer, with blood vessels that run deep into the brain.
Meningitis means destruction of the layers of brain which is fatal.
