They are all really important, from our skin to our spleen.
But I think that the brain is probably the critical one. I could imagine a brain in a bubbling glass container, all wired up, thinking about how to answer IAS2011 questions.
They’re all important in their own ways and work together to help us function as best as we can.
However, there are some organs we can live without with modern medicine. These include organs such as the thyroid, bladder, bowel, gall bladder, pancreas (I think), the appendix, tonsils, adenoids, lymph nodes, spleen, kidneys. You can also lose parts of organs aznd still live, like 1 (but not both) lungs, parts of your brain, liver, etc.
Did you know that skin is the largest organ in your body? I’ve now decided if you lose all of that organ, you probably couldn’t exist even with modern medicine.
Of course they are all important but the heart seems to be the most protected when it comes to oxygen supply. The heart takes 70% of all the oxygen the body takes in and if oxygen is restricted, you would faint first through lack of blood to the brain before your heart would miss out on its supply.
