A cutaneous reflex is an involuntary reaction of the body to a stimulus applied to the skin. This reflex involves sensory receptors in the skin detecting a stimulus, such as pain or touch, and sending signals to the spinal cord, which then triggers a motor response. Common examples include the withdrawal reflex when touching something hot or sharp. These reflexes are crucial for protecting the body from harm and facilitating quick responses to environmental changes.
The superficial cord reflex, also known as the cutaneous reflex, is a protective response where a sudden, unexpected touch or pressure on the skin causes a reflexive movement away from the source. This reflex helps to protect the body from potential harm or injury.
The crossed-extensor reflex involves contralateral response. When one side of the body is stimulated, the reflex causes the opposite side to respond, such as stepping on a tack with one foot causing the other leg to support more of the body's weight.
Cutaneous Membrane
The cutaneous membrane is considered an epithelial membrane. It is composed of the outer epidermis (epithelial tissue) and the deeper dermis (connective tissue).

Most cutaneous horns are not cancer but about 20 percent are. My husband had one and it turned out to be benign (no cancer).
Cutaneous glands are glands located in the skin that secrete substances such as sweat, oil, and wax. These glands help regulate body temperature, prevent dehydration, and protect the skin from external factors. There are two main types of cutaneous glands: sweat glands (eccrine and apocrine) and sebaceous glands.
