Q5. Why is visceral pleural irritation poorly localized?
- It contains no nerves
- It contains skeletal muscle
- It is supplied by spinal nerves only
- It lacks somatic sensory innervation
Q6. Which pleural layer is more sensitive to pain?

- Neither has sensory innervation
- Visceral pleura
- Both are equally insensitive

- Cervical pleura
- Costal pleura
Q10. What happens to visceral pleura at the lung hilum?
