What is the primary purpose of a tattoo?

To mark or color the skin
To provide temporary art
To decorate clothing
To enhance beauty

The correct answer is: To mark or color the skin

The primary purpose of a tattoo is to mark or color the skin. Tattoos are essentially permanent designs created by inserting ink into the dermis layer of the skin, resulting in a lasting alteration in skin color and texture. While other choices mention aspects related to body art or aesthetics, marking the skin is the fundamental purpose of the practice. Unlike temporary art, which is not a permanent alteration, a tattoo serves as a form of self-expression, cultural identity, or memorial, making the act of marking the skin essential to what a tattoo fundamentally is.
