There exists some controversy about what structures are considered<unk> ", and how types of<unk>  should be classified. The two most common systems are: * The one specified in the 1983 edition of Nomina Anatomica (NA 1983) * The one specified in the 1997 edition of Terminologia Anatomica (TA 1997) NA 1983 TA 1997 Description Example Superficial<unk>  (not considered<unk>  in this system) This is found in the subcutis in most regions of the body, blending with the reticular layer of the dermis.<unk>  of Scarpa Deep<unk> <unk>  of muscles This is the dense fibrous connective tissue that interpenetrates and surrounds the muscles, bones, nerves and blood vessels of the body. Transverse<unk>  Visceral<unk>  Visceral<unk> , parietal<unk>  This suspends the organs within their cavities and wraps them in layers of connective tissue membranes. Pericardium Superficial<unk>  Superficial<unk>  is the lowermost layer of the skin in nearly all of the regions of the body, that blends with the reticular dermis layer. It is present on the face, over the upper portion of the sternocleidomastoid, at the nape of the neck, and overlying the breastbone. It consists mainly of loose areolar, and fatty adipose connective tissue and is the layer that primarily determines the shape of a body. In addition to its subcutaneous presence, superficial<unk>  surrounds organs and glands, neurovascular bundles, and is found at many other locations where it fills otherwise unoccupied space. It serves as a storage medium of fat and water; as a passageway for lymph, nerve and blood vessels; and as a protective padding to cushion and insulate. Superficial<unk>  is present, but does not contain fat, in the eyelid, ear, scrotum, penis and clitoris. Due to its viscoelastic properties, superficial<unk>  can stretch to accommodate the deposition of adipose that accompanies both ordinary and prenatal weight gain. After pregnancy and weight loss, the superficial<unk>  slowly reverts to its original level of tension. Visceral<unk>  Visceral<unk>  (also called subserous<unk>  suspends the organs within their cavities and wraps them in layers of connective tissue membranes. Each of the organs is covered in a double layer of<unk> ; these layers are separated by a thin serous membrane. * The outermost wall of the organ is known as the parietal layer * The skin of the organ is known as the visceral layer. The organs have specialized names for their visceral<unk> e. In the brain, they are known as meninges; in the heart they are known as pericardia; in the lungs, they are known as pleurae; and in the abdomen, they are known as peritonea. Visceral<unk>  is less extensible than superficial<unk> . Due to its suspensory role of the organs, it needs to maintain its tone rather consistently. If it is too lax, it contributes to organ prolapse, yet if it is hypertonic, it restricts proper organ motility. Deep<unk>  Deep<unk>  is a layer of dense fibrous connective tissue which surrounds individual muscles, and also divides groups of muscles into<unk> l compartments. This<unk>  has a high density of elastin fibre that determines its extensibility or resilience. Deep<unk>  was originally considered to be essentially avascular. However, more recent investigations confirmed a rich presence of thin blood vessels. Deep<unk>  is also richly supplied with sensory receptors. Examples of deep<unk>  are<unk>  lata,<unk>  cruris, brachial<unk> , plantar<unk> , thoracolumbar<unk>  and Buck's<unk> .
