What is important.. brain or heart
Without your brain, you're not you. Your mental life, your internal life, your hopes, dreams, aspirations, what you love, what you dislike, your views and opinions. All these things are generated by your brain. Eliminate your brain and all those things stop.

Your brain contains many cells, probably about a trillion (neurons + glia).
Like any other cells, the cells in your brain require a constant exchange of materials in order to continue to function.
The materials they need are delivered by the circulatory system; a system of vessels through which blood travels
The pressure needed to move blood through the circulatory system is generated by the heart.
And so, if the heart is eliminated then the
cells of the brain (and the other cells of the body) will no longer receive the materials (oxygen, minerals, vitamins, essential amino acids, glucose) they require in order to function.
So, if you take out the heart, you will effectively take out the brain too.

However, the heart is a purely mechanical organ, with a clear correlation between its structure and function, and as long as there is something cyclically generating the pressure required to distribute blood throughout the body, a biological heart is not a strict necessity for life.

The same can't be said for the brain, and as I mentioned before, if you get rid of the brain, then that's you, gone.

Scientists say these crops are safe, but skeptics who fear unintended effects of genetically modified foods and feel like humans are playing the role of the lab rats in a giant experiment have waged a rear-guard action against "GMOs." Their latest battle? Proposition 37, which would require genetically modified foods or packaged foods containing GMOs to be clearly labeled when sold in California.
It's easy to sympathize with the cause. The measure would simply add labels, not ban or in any other way regulate genetically modified foods. Giving consumers more information, rather than less, is generally a good thing.
But as written, Proposition 37 would create a fertile new field of litigation. Retailers would be mainly responsible for ensuring the proper labeling of the products they sell, overseen by the state Department of Public Health, but private lawyers and activists would have the power to sue over alleged violations and collect their costs and fees — even if nobody's suffered any damages. More work for creative plaintiff's lawyers and more hassles for businesses? That is not what California
needs.
Genetically modified crops pose potential hazards and should be rigorously analyzed for safety by the federal Food and Drug Administration, which is responsible for ensuring food safety. A quirky only-in-California labeling law will leave people asking lots of questions but won't prevent any genuine health hazards.
On the other hand, for those who prefer the precautionary principle and choose to avoid genetically modified foods, there's a simple answer: Eat organic. Federal rules already bar the use of GM seed in certified organic crops, whose popularity has grown dramatically in recent years. Once a quirk of Santa Cruz hippies, these days organics verge on mainstream even in conservative Redding.
