The human body is like a large machine, and the organs are like parts of the machine, and only when these parts are functioning properly can the human body remain healthy.
Once an organ is removed, it is like the loss of an important component of the machine, and the normal operation of the machine will be affected.
Of course, there are organs that can be replaced or transplanted, and these organs are called "renewable organs" because of their ability to repair and regenerate themselves.
However, even in these cases, the human body still needs to go through a certain recovery and adaptation period to adapt to the new organ or tissue.
In ancient times, people believed that the human body had four basic organs: the heart, liver, lungs, and kidneys, and these four organs played an important role in the human body, but modern medicine tells us that the number of organs in the human body is actually much more than these four.
Modern medicine believes that the human body has dozens of organs, including but not limited to the following: heart, liver, lungs, kidneys, stomach, spleen, gallbladder, intestines, heart, eyes, ears, nose, mouth, tongue, teeth, pancreas, thyroid, parathyroid glands, adrenal glands, **, etc.
Each of these organs plays a different role in the human body and together maintains the vital activities of the human body. For example, the heart is responsible for pumping blood, the liver is responsible for detoxification and metabolism, the lungs are responsible for breathing, the kidneys are responsible for detoxification, and so on.
In addition, there are many other tissues and organs in the human body such as muscles, bones, nerves, and many more. Although these tissues and organs are not the most basic components of the human body, they also play an important role in human life activities.
In conclusion, the human body is a complex system composed of many different organs, each of which plays a different role and together maintains the vital activities of the human body.
1. Appendix
The appendix is a small section of intestinal tube in the human intestine and is often considered a vestigial organ because its function is not clear, in fact, the appendix does not have much effect on the human body, and even if it is removed, it will not have much impact on the human life.
2. Tonsils
The tonsils are lymphatic organs in the throat that help the body fight inflammation and infection. However, since the tonsils are often affected by factors such as food and air, they are prone to inflammation, leading to symptoms such as pain, cough, and productive production.
If tonsillitis occurs more than 3 to 4 times a year, the tonsils enlarge for a long time, affect breathing or sleep, or cause complications such as secretory otitis media and rheumatoid arthritis, the tonsils need to be surgically removed. Only by removing the lesion can the body be avoided from repeated injuries.
3. Wisdom teeth
Wisdom teeth are teeth located at the back of the mouth that usually appear during adolescence, however, due to changes in modern eating patterns and chewing Xi, wisdom teeth often do not grow fully or do not grow properly.
This causes inflammation and pain in the gum tissue around the wisdom teeth, and as a result, wisdom teeth are often removed to avoid further effects on oral health.
4. A coccyx
At the beginning, life had a "tail", because the places where they lived were linear caves or deep mountains and old forests, in order to always maintain the continuity of the body, with the help of the pelvic joint fulcrum that has always been maintained in the necessary direction.
With the continuous mutation and industrial development, the role of the coccyx has gradually weakened, and some people have obviously noticed a coccyx fracture or coccygeal pain.
5. Metacarpus longus
The palmar longus muscle is a muscle located in the palm of the hand that functions to flex the fingers, however, for most people, this muscle is not necessary because we rarely need it in our daily life and work, therefore, the palmar longus muscle is usually removed to reduce the impact on hand dexterity.
6. Auricle
The pinna is a piece of cartilaginous tissue located on the outside of the ear that can help collect sound waves and direct them into the ear canal, however, for most people, the role of the pinna is not necessary.
In nature, there are some organisms that have an amazing ability to regenerate, but can humans also achieve organ regeneration in some way like these creatures?
In fact, the regenerative ability of human beings is limited, and we cannot be like some lower organisms, after losing an organ, we can grow a new organ, but in the field of medicine, scientists have been exploring and researching, hoping to achieve the regeneration of human organs through stem cell transplantation, gene editing and other technologies.
Stem cell transplantation is a promising organ regeneration technology, stem cells are cells with a high degree of self-renewal and multi-directional differentiation ability, can be differentiated into a variety of human cells, by transplanting stem cells into the patient's body, can promote the regeneration and repair of cells in the patient's body, so as to achieve the purpose of the disease.
Gene editing technology can also help realize the regeneration of human organs, and by editing the human genome, it can promote the self-repair and regeneration ability of cells, and then realize the regeneration of organs, however, gene editing technology needs to face ethical and moral challenges, and needs to be carried out under strict supervision and control.
There is only one life, and only by protecting each organ so that the organs can perform their respective duties and play a coordinated role, people will live a long life and achieve health.
