Visceral pleura

Explanation:

The portion of the serous membrane that covers and adheres to the lung is called visceral pleura

Pleura are the pair of membranous linings surrounding the lungsThe visceral pleura covers each lung surface, and the parietal pleura covers the inner surface of the thoracic cavityThe visceral pleura is a delicate membrane which dips into the fissures between the lobes of the lungPleura allows the lungs to move inside the body cavity without friction as friction would cause damage to the lungs and the tissue in the chest wall

It allows water to resist freezing and thawing cycle.
