Solution

The correct option is B

Dura mater, Arachnoid mater, Pia mater


Meninges consist of the following layers:

1) Outer layer – Dura mater provides support for large venous sinuses.

2) Middle layer – Thin Arachnoid matter acts as a cushion.

3) Inner layer – Pia mater remains in close contact with the brain and provides scaffolding for the blood vessels and capillaries of the brain.
