Solution

The correct option is C Piamater
The meninges are the layers that are closely present around the brain. The dura mater is an outermost tough and fibrous layer. It is followed by the arachnoid mater that forms the middle meninx. The piamater is the innermost meninx which adheres closely to the surface of the brain. It is highly vascular due to the rich supply of the blood vessels. So, it provides oxygen and nutrients to the cells of the brain.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Piamater'
