Answer to Question 1

late somatic effects

Answer to Question 2

visceral pleura

Rationale: Visceral pleura is the membrane that directly lines the outer margin of the lung. The parietal pleura lines the inside of the thoracic cavity. The potential space found between the parietal pleura and visceral pleura is the pleural cavity.
