Q. Cutaneous membrane is the technical term for which tissue or organ?
Answer: Skin
Notes: The skin is the soft outer covering of vertebrates that guards the underlying muscles, bones, ligaments, and internal organs. The cutaneous membrane is the technical term for our skin. The skin's primary role is to help protect the rest of the body's tissues and organs from physical damage such as abrasions, chemical damage such as detergents, and biological damage from micro organisms. Our skin is made of three general layers. In order from most superficial to deepest they are the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue.
