There is no definitive answer to which organ shuts down first when a person is dying, as it can vary. However, in general, the brain is often one of the first organs to be affected as it requires continuous oxygen and nutrients to function properly. Other organs such as the heart and lungs may also be impacted as the body's systems gradually fail.
