Although the body is a miracle of coordination between parts that keep us alive, I still believe this old joke hits the nail on the head. Face it though, without any of the major systems you will die anyhow.
All the organs of the human body were having a meeting, trying to decide who should be the one in charge.
"I should be in charge," said the brain , "Because I run all the body's systems, so without me nothing would happen."
"I should be in charge," said the blood, "Because I circulate oxygen all over so without me you'd all waste away."
"I should be in charge," said the stomach," Because I process food and give all of you energy."
"I should be in charge," said the legs, "because I carry the body wherever it needs to go."
"I should be in charge," said the eyes, "Because I allow the body to see where it goes."
"I should be in charge," said the rectum, "Because I'm responsible for waste removal."
All the other body parts laughed at the rectum And insulted him, so in a huff, he shut down tight. Within a few days, the brain had a terrible headache, the stomach was bloated, the legs got wobbly, the eyes got watery, and the blood Was toxic. They all decided that the rectum should be the boss.
So what's the moral of the story?
The asshole is usually in charge!

all of the system in our body is important...without 1 of them...we may die...
On the outside we all are different. Different skin colors, eye
colors, personalities, and abilities. But on the inside, we all have the same parts; circulatory (blood), respiratory (breathing), skeletal (support), digestive (eating), and muscular (movement). All are very important and serve different purposes in our body.
One day Mr. Muscle and Ms. Respiration got into an argument.
“I’m the most important part of the body. See how strong I am?” Mr. Muscle exclaimed, using his flexed bicep to illustrate his point.
“But without the oxygen that I breathe you would be a weakling. I am the most important system of the body!” said Ms. Respiration.
Pretty soon all the systems of the body were involved in the debate and arguing about why they were the most important part of the body.
“I am obviously the most important part. I transport all the nutrients that you need throughout the body” declared Mrs. Circulation.
“But I provide the support for all the internal organs. I give shape to the human body. Without me you would just be a big blob of tissues. I am most important!” Mr. Bones grumbled.
Through a mouthful of food, Mr. Digestion spat out, “Yeah, but guys, I’m the one that eats. I process all the pizza and potato chips into useable energy. That is the most important thing for sure.”
Everyone was shouting until they decided to have a judge (your teacher) make the decision, once and for all, about who was the most important system in the human body.

That would be your genitals. It may seem preposterous, but in an emergency situation, what part are you most concerned about? If you were in a fire and had to choose between loosing a foot or your tackle, I could learn to be great at hopping, but would probably commit suicide if I were to loose the ole' twig and giggle-berries.
Honestly, your question is ludicrous. Eliminate any of the body's systems and life is not possible. To claim one to be superior to another is like trying to decide which atoms in a molecule of water are more important, the hydrogen atoms or the oxygen atom.

We would die without virtually any of our systems. Specifically, we would die without the endocrine system, the circulatory system, or the respiratory system, among others.
Without the endocrine system, the body's organs wouldn't receive hormonal signals to regulate their activity. Without the circulatory system, organs wouldn't be able to receive the oxygen they require to perform those functions. Without the respiratory system, the body would not even be able to extract oxygen from the air in the first place.

every system.... of course, how can we breathe if there is no respiratory system?
how can our blood circulate without the circulatory system?
how can our actions have responses w/o the nervous system?
how can we move comfortably w/o the skeletal and musculine system?
there are still many systems in our body, but all of them are important since every system is needed by our body......

E/every system is of equal k.importance..because they have a rhythm that makes them inter dependent one upon the other.
