Top 10 “Useless” Organs.
It is hard to believe that we have any organs that
are truly “useless” in our bodies. Still, when it
comes to a burst appendix and wisdom teeth we
don’t bat an eye at removing them. Here are 10 of
the most useless organs in and on your body.
1. Male Nipples
We might not think about this much, but really they
don’t serve a purpose. So why have them? I guess
it’s all for looks.
2. Appendix
While Darwin claimed that the appendix was useful
at one time, mostly during our early plant-eating
digestive years, the father of evolution also
admitted that today it serves very little or no
purpose. This is largely because we learned how to
cook to make our foods more easily digestible.
3. Wisdom Teeth
Let’s be realistic – cave men didn’t brush and
floss, so obviously they lost a few teeth along the
way. That made these extra “wisdom teeth” useful
until the dentist became common. Now they just –
ouch!
4. Erector Pili
This is the contraption in your skin that gives you
goose bumps. A good indicator that something is
freaking you out, but other than that today it
doesn’t do much good. Erector Pili originally would
make us look bigger and scarier in fear based
situations, but now we don’t have as much hair
and we just look like a naked chicken.
5. Coccyx
The Coccyx, or more aptly named the tailbone, is
several fused vertebrae at the bottom of the spine
left over from when we used to have tails.
6. Tonsils
Similar to the appendix, tonsils seem to be pesky
and prone to swelling and infection. Most of us
don’t make to 30 with them still intact.
7. Adenoids
Prone to swelling and infection you often lose these
along with your tonsils. They do technically serve a
kind of purpose – trapping bacteria – but still they
shrink as we get older and we don’t really miss
them when they’re gone.
8. Sinuses
Sinuses are mostly a mystery for doctors – we
mostly just know that we have a lot of them. There
are theories that they are eye insulation or
determine the pitch and tone of our voice.
9. Body Hair
Up until almost 3 million years ago, we were much
hairier, but when the ability to sweat came along
we lost the wool coats!
10. Plica Semilunaris (Third eyelid)
Originally part of a “Nictitating membrane,” the
Plica Semilunaris is the little third lid located right
next to your tear duct. Animals like chickens,
lizards, and sharks still have the full membrane, but
we obviously don’t use ours anymore.
