Not really. We can live without some organs found in the systems but not the entire system. We can live without a spleen or a gallbladder but not the systems they are part of (circulatory and digestive).

You can live without your tonsils, which are found at the back of your throat, and your spleen, which helps filter blood and fight infections. In some cases, removal of the thyroid gland, which controls metabolism, is manageable with hormone replacement therapy.


Could you survive without any of your organ systems?

One simple answer...NO! Without the nervous system your body would rot away because the nervous system is on of the 5 human senses...FEEL! You woudn't fell your leg being chopped of without even looking and you could be sliced into peices and die! Another horrifying fact is that the nervous system consists of nerves DUH, the spinal cord and the human brain... No nervous system, no brain. No brain, no life. Humans would have ceased to live! Thanx 4 reading this! By the way I am just a 12 year old girl who happened to answer this simple question! How I answered this? Well, lets just say I'm working on a project and i have great resources! I hope I was good help. Seeyah and cheers! Plants have no nervous system and they live just fine. All you need to live is a the medulla oblongata to regulate essential bodily functions like heart and breathing.


What bone can you not live without?

No- bone marrow is the source of all your red blood cells (which carry oxygen), platelets (which help clot your blood) and white blood cells (which fight infections). Although you can replace your red cells and platelets with blood transfusions, you cannot replace your immune system, so you would contract infection after infection, and eventually that would lead to death. A condition that causes this would be aplastic anaemia.


Why does the reproductive organ are not considered as a vital body organ?

Vital organs are organs necessary to live. For example: The stomach is a vital organ because without it our body will not get necessary nutrients in order to turn them into energy. Another example is the lungs which is also a vital organ since it provides oxygen to our body without our lungs we can die due to lack of oxygen. Now the reproductive organs such as the female and male genatelia are not vital because our body can still function properly if the reproductive organ was be removed.


Explain why the skeletal and muscular systems cannot function without each other.?

We need all 11 of our body systems in order to function. Muscular system provides ligaments, tendons, and muscles to make the bones attach muscles. Without the skeletal system, our body will not have any support. Without muscular system, we'll just look like a skeleton covered with skin. Also there are blood vessels and nerves in the muscles, and that's how we move and use our feet and hands.
