Could we live without your skull?

Answer 1

No, a human couldn't live without a brain because the brain controls everything in your body, so it tells your heart to beat, feet to move, eyes to blink, mouth to open, teeth to chew. If you don't have your brain to tell your heart to beat, your heart cannot pump blood. So your body really can't live. Please improve if you feel it's not right.

*Your brain doesn't necessarily tell your heart to beat. Your heart is composed of cells which are described as auto-rhythmic. These cells are essentially a pacemaker and produce action potentials simultaneously, causing the heart to contract and pump blood to the rest of the body. Therefore, if you removed the heart from the body, it would still contract without being attached to the rest of your body.

Answer 2

If you don't have a skull you have no brain protection, nothing to keep your eyes the right distance apart, nothing to hold your tongue in, nothing to keep your ears the right distance, and nothing to support your face. you could live without a skull but the lithest tap to the top of your head would kill or paralyze you. your face would be all droopy and distorted, you wouldn't be able to see or hear anything, and your tongue would just hang. so you could live without your skull but would basically be so vulnerable you would probly just die.

Answer 3

no, without a skull, the brain would not be protected and your skull holds up the head/brain. if you didn't have a skull, then if someone/something hits you in the head, it would most likely "pop" your brain and kill you. Transplant would not be possible because they would have to remove your whole face and head which would probably kill you. Yet I'm nott an expert at this, this answer makes the most sense. Thank You!

Answer 4

No, the human skull houses and protects the brain, which is vital for survival. Without a skull, the brain would be exposed and vulnerable to injury, making survival impossible.
