Why is the skin an organ and not a tissue? PLEASE EXPLAIN.

Answered by admin @ 03/08/2021

Explanation:

The skin is an organ because it is made up of different tissues that work together to perform the functions of the skin. A tissue is made up of cells generally. However it is more appropriate to describe the skin as an organ as the cells have been organised into different tissues that make up an organ.
