Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that the meninges are protective coverings of the brain and spinal cord, consisting of three layers.
Identify the three layers of the meninges: dura mater, arachnoid mater, and pia mater.
Recognize that 'superficial to deep' means starting from the outermost layer and moving inward.
Recall that the dura mater is the outermost, toughest layer, followed by the arachnoid mater, which is a web-like structure, and finally the pia mater, which is the delicate innermost layer adhering closely to the brain and spinal cord.
Match the correct sequence of layers from superficial to deep: dura mater, arachnoid mater, pia mater.
