A Correct answer
Explanation

Humans can survive after removal of significant portions of internal organs. Examples include living with one kidney (nephrectomy), parts of the liver (which regenerates), spleen, pancreas, stomach, and intestines. People can survive with one lung, portions of the brain, and even after removal of the entire stomach (though requiring adaptation). While obviously not all organs can be removed, the statement that 'a large part' can be removed with survival is accurate.
