Peritoneum is a smooth, continuous serous membrane that lines the abdominal cavity and covers most of the abdominal organs. It forms a closed sac with a parietal and visceral layer, secreting fluid to reduce friction. In anatomy, it serves as a protective, functional surface influencing organ movement and support within the abdomen.
