Solution

Meninges

  1. Meninges are the three membranous envelopes that surround the central nervous system (the brain and the spinal cord).
  2. The main function of these membranes is to protect the central nervous system.
  3. The three layers are the Dura mater, Arachnoid mater, and the Pia mater.

Thus, the organs surrounded by meninges are the brain and the spinal cord.
