Because every organ has 2 layers of tissue and fluid to prevent friction the inner layer I believe is visceral and the outside is parietal.
such as the visceral pericardium and parietal pericardium protect the heart.

What does a fish have a smooth streamlined shape?
It reduces friction
What is the role of the serous membranes covering some organs?
to prevent friction between the organ and body cavity wall
What is peritoneum in the frog?
It is a spiderweb like membrane lining the abdominal cavity and covering the organs, preventing them from being damaged or worn by friction generated by day to day movement and holding them in place during movement.Read more: What_is_the_function_of_the_visceral_peritoneum
What processes data from sense organs and controls body movements?
The brain along with the CNS (Central nervous system)
What type ofr tissue is responsible for contractions that account for movement of organs of the entire body?
What type of tissue is responsible for contractions that account for movements of organs or the entire body
Which describes smooth muscles?

What is the visceral membrane?
