Major organs of the systems in the body?
An organ system in the body is a system that maintains life and carries out a specific function of the body so it can live well and be viable. Any organ system failure can result in death or ill health. Here are some of the organ systems: Cardiovascular, Skin or Dermal system, Filtering Systems (such as liver, kidneys, spleen), Digestive system, Nervous System, and what I call sensory systems (which do not threaten life when not functioning properly) such as hearing, light touch, vision, taste, and smell. Organ systems that keep your body alive are heart, lungs, brain, entire digestive system, liver, kidneys, hormones, nervous system (paralysis above a certain spinal zone will result in death or brain death). If your largest organ, the dermis is damaged too much by wounds, burns or disease you would not be able to live. So you can see that the organ systems do keep you alive and functioning either well or poorly depending on its condition.

What internal organ can survive the longest without oxygen muscle kidneys liver heart?
The liver, and here is why: The heart requires cellular respiration to continue beating, as do the muscle cells for flexing. The kidney is a close call, but it actively pumps fluids to filter blood, thus requiring cellular respiration as well. Obviously the liver uses cellular respiration as well, however it is not as active as the other three organs. It produces large amounts of enzymes, and has a large chemical (rather than mechanical) impact on the human body.
