The answer: Peritoneum.

The peritoneum is the serous membrane that lines the abdominopelvic cavity. This membrane is composed by two layers: parietal peritoneum and visceral peritoneum. This membrane supports the abdominal organs and serves as a channel for their blood, lymphatic vessels and nerves.
