The pericardium (pl.: pericardia), also called pericardial sac, is a double-walled sac containing the heart and the roots of the great vessels. [1] It has two layers, an outer layer made of strong inelastic connective tissue (fibrous pericardium), and an inner layer made of serous membrane (serous pericardium).
Grains are more starch based [36] and nuts have a high protein, fibre, vitamin E and B content. [40] Seeds are a good source of food for animals because they are abundant and contain fibre and healthful fats, such as omega-3 fats. [48] [49] Complicated chemical interactions can enhance or depress bioavailability of certain nutrients.
It contains more than 151 different polypeptides, and has a very high protein-to-phospholipid ratio (more than 3:1 by weight, which is about 1 protein for 15 phospholipids). The inner membrane is home to around 1/5 of the total protein in a mitochondrion. [31] Additionally, the inner membrane is rich in an unusual phospholipid, cardiolipin.
