      This is a tricky one depending on how you count them, e.g. is each different muscle an organ. But generally scientists say it is over 60 and most say the number is 78. The main important ones (vital organs) are the Heart, Lungs, Brain, Kidneys and Liver

      Like john said- there’s 78
      The largest in skin, smallest is pineal gland
      The heaviest is the liver and the coolest is the brain 🙂
