Explanation:

• Lungs are encapsulated by pleural membranes: The pleural membranes (visceral and parietal pleura) surround the lungs, creating a pleural cavity.
• Air into lungs (ribs expand, negative pressure): During inhalation, the intercostal muscles contract, ribs expand, and the diaphragm contracts (moves down). This increases the volume of the thoracic cavity, creating a negative pressure (lower pressure in the lungs compared to the outside atmosphere), and air rushes in.
• Thin three - layered membrane covering brain (meninges): The meninges (dura mater, arachnoid mater, and pia mater) are the protective membranes around the brain.
• Thought, speech (frontal lobe): The frontal lobe is involved in higher - order cognitive functions like thinking, planning, and speech production (e.g., Broca's area in the frontal lobe is important for speech).
• Vision (occipital lobe): The occipital lobe is the primary visual processing center of the brain.
• Smell (olfactory lobes): The olfactory lobes (related to the olfactory nerve and olfactory cortex) are involved in the sense of smell.
• Sensory association (parietal lobe): The parietal lobe is involved in sensory integration and association, such as processing touch, temperature, and spatial information.
• Pig's sense of smell (olfactory lobes): Similar to humans (but pigs may have a more developed sense), the olfactory lobes are responsible for processing smell.
• Motor and sensory fibers form synapses (thalamus): The thalamus is a major relay station in the brain. Sensory and motor pathways synapse in the thalamus before being relayed to other parts of the brain.
• Relays message between body and brain (spinal cord): The spinal cord is a part of the central nervous system. It carries sensory information from the body to the brain and motor information from the brain to the body.

Answer:

• lungs are encapsulated by: pleural membranes
• air into lungs: ribs expand, negative pressure
• thin three - layered membrane covering brain: meninges
• thought, speech: frontal lobe
• vision: occipital lobe
• smell: olfactory lobes
• sensory association: parietal lobe
• pig's sense of smell: olfactory lobes
• motor and sensory fibers form synapses: thalamus
• relays message between body and brain: spinal cord
