Detailed explanation-1: -The skin is the largest organ of the body. The skin and its derivatives (hair, nails, sweat and oil glands) make up the integumentary system. One of the main functions of the skin is protection.

Detailed explanation-2: -If the medical community accepts it as an organ, it may be the largest organ in your body. But until then, the skin is at the top of the list as the largest organ. The biggest solid internal organ is your liver, followed by your brain, lungs, heart, and kidneys.

Detailed explanation-3: -Yes, the skin is an organ, the largest. It can seem counterintuitive since many of our other organs are unseen. The skin, made up of three layers: the Epidermis, the Dermis and the Hypodermis, is an external organ. It serves as a very important barrier between the body and bacteria, chemicals, and temperature.

Detailed explanation-4: -Your skin is the largest organ of your body. Did you know that your liver is the second largest? That makes it the largest solid internal organ you have, weighing in at 3-3.5 pounds.
