Major Organs in the Human Body

  • There are several major organs in the human body, each with its own unique function, including:
  • Brain - controls the body's central nervous system and coordinates all bodily functions
  • Heart - pumps blood throughout the body to supply oxygen and nutrients to all cells
  • Lungs - facilitate the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the body and the environment
  • Liver - filters toxins from the blood and produces bile to aid in digestion
  • Kidneys - filter waste products from the blood and regulate fluid balance and blood pressure
  • Stomach - breaks down food into smaller particles and begins the digestion process
  • Intestines - absorb nutrients from food and eliminate waste products from the body
  • Pancreas - produces insulin and other hormones to regulate blood sugar levels
