Question

Layer which is continuous with the tunica externa is

• A. Parietal layer
• B. Visceral layer
• C. Fibrous percardium
• D. Serous pericardium

Answer 1

The correct option is B Visceral layer

The outermost layer of the blood vessels is known as the tunica externa or then tunica adventitia. It is composed of connective fibres. Also, an elastic lamina surrounds it and anchors vessels with surrounding tissues. The visceral pericardium is the layer that is continuous with the tunica externa.

So, the correct answer is 'Visceral layer'.
