Anatomy <lead needs written.>

Brain

A brain was the central area for thought in most sentient biological entities. All animals and humans had brains of some sort. (TV: Invasion of the Dinosaurs) It was a biological system made from brain cells (AUDIO: The Vengeance of Morbius) such as neurons (COMIC: Before the Storm) which came together to form the mind, a seat for consciousness, complete with memories and intention. (AUDIO: The Vengeance of Morbius)

Human brains

Dorothy McShane had her brain function checked when she underwent a full medical examination to be a passenger on the Virgil. (PROSE: At Childhood's End)

Human brain illnesses

Miranda Cleaves had a blood clot in her brain, as did her Ganger. Cleaves was cured by a poultice the Eleventh Doctor gave her. (TV: The Almost People)

The Doctor's brain

Before his Exile on Earth, the Second Doctor's knowledge of how to operate his TARDIS was wiped from his brain. (TV: The War Games, AUDIO: Sympathy for the Devil)

Cybus-type Cybermen of the Cyber Legions determined that the Eleventh Doctor's brain was not compatible for cyber-conversion; as such, they intended to discard it whilst suggesting that other body parts could be of use. (TV: Closing Time) The Doctor claimed to have twenty-seven brains when chatting with Clara, although it was a lie. (TV: The Bells of Saint John) When the Cyberiad attempted to assimilate the Doctor, he managed to retain enough free will to keep just under half of his brain under his control, the Cyber-Planner calling itself Mr Clever controlling an equal amount of the brain. Using a hand pulse, the Doctor managed to purge the Cyber-Planner from his brain. (TV: Nightmare in Silver)

Non-human brains

The Fourth Doctor claimed that a machine as efficient as the human brain would have to be bigger than London and powered by the entire European grid. A Time Lord's brain was even more complex. (TV: The Invisible Enemy)

According to Tegan Jovanka, most dinosaurs had brains "the size of a pea". (TV: Earthshock)

The Ood had two brains. One was carried in their hands. There was also a giant brain on the Ood Sphere which formed their collective consciousness. (TV: Planet of the Ood)

The Judoon had rather small brains; a Judoon brain was able to fit in a box that could easily be held in a humanoid palm. (WC: Prequel (A Good Man Goes to War))

K9 Mark 2 told Starkey that the second planet in the Montoon system had an "ocean of brains". (TV: Curse of Anubis)

The Mechanistrians were Korads who had their brains placed in machines. (PROSE: Peril in Mechanistria)

Other information

Disembodied brain species

The Morpho were a race of disembodied brains, (TV: "The Velvet Web") as were the Masters of Dorada, (PROSE: The Dream Masters) and the Shoal of the Winter Harmony. (TV: The Return of Doctor Mysterio)

Transplantation of brains

In certain circumstances, a brain could be transplanted out of the entity it belonged to and into another vessel. This was done with Morbius' brain after his body was destroyed. Morbius' ally, Mehendri Solon, had to find a head large enough to fit the brain and only found the right match when he met the Fourth Doctor. (TV: The Brain of Morbius) On Thoros Beta, the surgeon Crozier accomplished significant results in this field, with the brain of the Mentor Kiv. (TV: Mindwarp) The War Chief, his own body being badly deformed, desired to transplant his brain into the Seventh Doctor's body and vice versa. (PROSE: Timewyrm: Exodus) On Pete's World, the Cybermen there were created by having the brain transplanted from the human form into the cybernetic suit. (TV: Rise of the Cybermen)

The Master swapped Rupert's brain for the brain of a Bandril, and used Rupert to organise his media interests. (PROSE: A letter from the Master)

Lady Cassandra O'Brien.Δ17 was able to survive the destruction of the sheet of skin which formed her "body" because her brain was undamaged, allowing her to constitute a new skin body with another skin sheet from her old human body — this one taken from her backside. Her brain meat expired after she used a psychograft to transfer her consciousness inside the body of Rose Tyler. (TV: The End of the World, New Earth)

Brains as food

Brains were among the meat eaten by some beings. Brains in white sauce were among the food eaten by Shockeye and the Second Doctor, partially converted into an Androgum, at Las Cadenas, a Spanish restaurant, during the year 1987. (TV: The Two Doctors)

The Kantrofarri fed on brain matter. (TV: Last Christmas)

Mordrega needed to consume human brains to survive. (AUDIO: The Ghosts of Gralstead)

Historians who had been allowed access to the "Monster Vaults" of the databanks in the Doctor's TARDIS observed that the heads of the Abzorbaloffs' absorbed victims remained alive and conscious within the Abzorbaloff's digestive tract and only when it had completely drained their brains were the heads fully assimilated into its "fleshy corpulence". (PROSE: The Monster Vault)

Manipulation of brains

Richard Harries experimented with brainwaves. He had sibling rats transfer knowledge through the waves and complete tasks the other had learnt. (PROSE: The Banquo Legacy)

The Fifth Doctor created an anti-dreaming device that stopped the brainwaves associated with dreaming. (TV: Snakedance)

While most brains were natural, the Rani once constructed a giant brain to absorb the mental energies of various individuals and compute the equations for a Time Manipulator. (TV: Time and the Rani)

An article on the Cybus Industries website (PROSE: EarPod) of "Pete's World" (TV: Doomsday, PROSE: The Time Traveller's Almanac, etc.) allowed owners of Cybus EarPods to personalise what content was downloaded into their brain with the next daily download. (PROSE: EarPod)

Ear

An ear was a sensory organ associated with hearing. There was fluid inside that affected a person's balance. (PROSE: A Bright White Crack)

Human ears

While visiting the Quadrant in 1987, Chris Cwej got an earring in his right ear. At the time in England, this was an indication that the wearer was gay, but he was initially unaware of the significance. (PROSE: Damaged Goods)

The Doctor's ears

The Fourth Doctor thought his nose was an improvement over that of his prior incarnation, but was unsure whether his ears were as well. (TV: Robot) The top of the Seventh Doctor's ear was singed when the War Chief fired his laser cane at him and he ducked. The Doctor healed it with some Sisterhood Salve. (PROSE: Timewyrm: Exodus)

When the War Doctor regenerated he hoped his ears would be less conspicuous. (TV: The Day of the Doctor) The Ninth Doctor referred to the size of his ears when he met Rose Tyler. (TV: Rose) Mickey Smith once referred to him as "big ears". (TV: Boom Town) The Tenth Doctor claimed that his predecessor was literally "all ears". (AUDIO: Death in the New Forest)

Upon discovering that the Eleventh Doctor was bald, having shaved his head out of boredom, Clara Oswald demanded that he put his wig back on, unnerved by his now prominent ears which she compared, much to his delight, to rocket fins. (TV: The Time of the Doctor)

Non-human ears

All Remote wore receivers in their earlobes. (PROSE: Interference - Book One, The Book of the War)

The Abzorbaloff appeared to have pointed ears. (TV: Love & Monsters)

Vulcans such as Spock were externally distinguished from humans by their pointed ears. (COMIC: Assimilation²)

The ears of a Fostarone turned blue when they lied. (PROSE: Ghosts of India)

Eye

The eye was an organ used for sight.

Human eyes

The Bruce Master used Chang Lee's human eyes to open the Eye of Harmony in the Doctor's TARDIS, having cited a distinct difference between the eyes of a human and those of the Doctor. (TV: Doctor Who)

Variation in human eyes

Pigmentation dispersal could cause the eye to change colour. Leela's eye colour changed from brown to blue after the explosion of a Rutan mothership prompted pigmentation dispersal and left her temporarily blind. (TV: Horror of Fang Rock) A student in St Luke's University named Heather was born with a defect, which left her left iris in the shape of a star. (TV: The Pilot)

The Doctor's eyes

The Eighth Doctor's eyes could change colour between green, blue, (PROSE: Vampire Science) and grey. (PROSE: Mad Dogs and Englishmen)

Eyes could be used to tell one's true age; in the case of the Doctor, his human companions found that they could tell, in spite of the differences caused by regeneration, whether incarnations were younger or older by looking into his eyes. Cindy Wu observed through that the Tenth Doctor was older than he looked through his eyes, and as such identified the seemingly older Third Doctor as a younger incarnation. (COMIC: The Lost Dimension) In contrast, River Song could tell that the Tenth Doctor was younger than the succeeding Doctors she was familiar with by looking into his eyes. (TV: Silence in the Library) Despite the advanced age of the War Doctor, Clara Oswald noted that his eyes were younger than those of his future selves in that they were more hopeful. (TV: The Day of the Doctor)

Non-human eyes

The eyes of Cybermen were known as eye-pods. (PROSE: Earthshock)

Some Silurians had a third eye, which could be used for telepathic purposes or as a weapon. (TV: Doctor Who and the Silurians, PROSE: Blood Heat, AUDIO: Bloodtide)

A Dogon's sixth eye allowed someone to look back clearly on their life and make better choices, especially if swallowed. (TV: Random Shoes)

An Ood's eye colour changed with the level of telepathic activity, normally glowing bright-red but turning to white when not connected to a hive mind. Humans, who only knew the Ood in their telepathy-disabled form, misinterpreted the presence of red eyes as a disease, known as "red-eye". (TV: Planet of the Ood) Under the control of House, one Ood's eyes glowed green. (TV: The Doctor's Wife)

During the Thousand Year War on Skaro, it was thought that Davros had lost his own eyes. (TV: Genesis of the Daleks, AUDIO: I, Davros) Whilst attempting to trick the Twelfth Doctor into giving up his regeneration energy to save the Daleks, Davros managed to cry and even chose to open his real eyes instead of using his Dalek eye, to the surprise of the Doctor. (TV: The Witch's Familiar)

Gallifreyan/Time Lord eyes

Gallifreyan eyes were noticeably different from human ones. While the human eye was just a dish of light-sensitive cells, leaving the brain to do all of the processing, the Time Lord retina was capable of thinking on its own. (PROSE: Seeing I) They could enhance available light, were thus better at seeing in the dark than human eyes; (PROSE: Lucifer Rising) they could also notice incredible amounts of detail from hundreds of yards away (TV: The Eleventh Hour) and see things beyond the human line of sight. (TV: The Hungry Earth) As a result of these strengths, the retina was the main method of communicating with machines on Gallifrey. (PROSE: Seeing I) The Master's eyes variously appeared dark blue and dark brown flecked with gold. (PROSE: Doctor Who and the Dæmons) Allisheer St Marx, the half-human daughter of Handramit, had mirror-flecked eyes; (PROSE: Of the City of the Saved...) Antigone's dark eyes were flecked with the tell-tale purple of the Homeworld high-caste. (PROSE: Weapons Grade Snake Oil) One Time Lord advisor's eyes were red pinpricks of light glowing from within darkened sockets, despite his otherwise appearing humanoid. (PROSE: K9 and the Zeta Rescue)

Regeneration could change the colour balance in Time Lords' eyes. (PROSE: The Day of the Doctor)

After failing to rescue Omega from the black hole he was trapped in, Savar was forced to leave his damaged TARDIS in an escape pod. The I intercepted the pod, taking all relevant technology. However as Time Lord technology utilised retinal verification, they also extracted his eyes. (PROSE: The Infinity Doctors, Seeing I)

Kidney

Kidneys were organs present in most humanoid species.

TO BE SORTED

After House murdered the Time Lord known as the Corsair, his kidneys were given to Uncle, one of House's patchwork slaves. (TV: The Doctor's Wife) When the Doctor's TARDIS matrix was transported into the body of Idris, her energy was burning out the body where she had been placed. As one of the first signs, she stated that one kidney had already given out. (TV: The Doctor's Wife)

While dying from the Judas tree poison, the Eleventh Doctor stated that the kidneys were "always the first to quit". (TV: Let's Kill Hitler) After his regeneration, the Twelfth Doctor noted he had new kidneys, adding that he didn't like the colour. (TV: The Time of the Doctor) The Fourteenth Doctor later noted he had blue kidneys, which he stated was normal. (COMIC: Liberation of the Daleks)

Alfred took the kidneys, liver and spleen of his first victim with the intention of using them to revive Julius Quilter when he died. (HOMEVID: Unnatural Selection)

Dorothy McShane had her kidney function checked with a "sinister-looking instrument" when she underwent a full medical examination to be a passenger on the Virgil. (PROSE: At Childhood's End)

Optic nerve

An optic nerve was an organ related to sight. (TV: Flatline) Optic nerves could misfire, resulting in temporary or even permanent blindness. (PROSE: The Door into Bedlam)

Non-human optic nerves

Dream crabs (who were blind and deaf) could see themselves by streaming the visual input from people's optic nerves to their brains. (TV: Last Christmas)

TO BE SORTED

The Twelfth Doctor once hacked Clara Oswald's optic nerve using nanotech, allowing him to see whatever she saw, on the TARDIS scanner. (TV: Flatline) When one's optic nerve was "tapped", though, the act could leave behind scars on the supra-orbital ridge, above the eye. (PROSE: War Crimes) In an alternate timeline, the Eleventh Doctor was partially upgraded into the Cyberiad. When he believed Alice Obiefune was safe in the TARDIS, the Cyberiad hacked into his optic nerves to show him that his ship had been drained of power and Alice, surrounded by Cyber-Silurians, could not enter. (COMIC: Supremacy of the Cybermen)

The Half-Face Man burned a dinosaur that appeared in the River Thames, to use its optic nerve to repair the Clockwork Droids' ship, the SS Marie Antoinette. (TV: Deep Breath)

Nose

A nose was a sensory organ associated with smell. According to the Sixth Doctor, the nose contained 400 sensory receptors, greatly dwarfed by the tongue's 10,000. (AUDIO: The Carrionite Curse)

The Doctor's nose

The Fourth Doctor thought his nose was an improvement over that of his prior incarnation, but was unsure whether his ears were as well. (TV: Robot)

When Nancy asked the Ninth Doctor how he had followed her, he told her that he was good at following, and that he'd "got the nose for it" and that it had "special powers". Nancy then remarked "yeah? Is that why it's so..." before stopping. The Doctor asked "what?" multiple times, but she refused to elaborate - although she then asked if his ears had special powers as well. (TV: The Empty Child)

Tanya Lernov claimed her nose never let her down. She compared it to a barometer, stating it helped her to smell trouble. Leo Ryan thought her nose was pretty. (TV: The Wheel in Space)

Non-human noses

Barcelonian dogs had no noses. The Ninth Doctor wished to take Rose Tyler to the planet Barcelona to see them, remarking how that joke never got old. (TV: The Parting of the Ways)

The Master once claimed that the Daleks were the only species in the galaxy who didn't have noses. (TV: The Curse of Fatal Death)

Mouth

A mouth was an organ associated with the consumption of food and communication by sound.

Non-human mouths

Myxilinic frost-worms were creatures found on Myxilinis Minima. They had several mouths. Above the central mouth was the olfactory organ. (PROSE: The Colour of Darkness)

The Silence normally had no visible mouths. When they were going to kill someone, a depression would appear where a mouth would normally be. (TV: The Impossible Astronaut)

The symbiotic Dellacoi could enter a host through the mouth and mentally connect to them. (PROSE: Bay of the Dead)

Jack Harkness once had a boyfriend with no mouth. (TV: Fragments)

Tongue

The tongue was a body part used for tasting and communication. According to the Sixth Doctor, the tongue contained 10,000 sensory receptors, greatly dwarfing the nose's 400. (AUDIO: The Carrionite Curse)

The Doctor's tongue

The Tenth Doctor was able to tell not only that the Sycorax were using blood control, but what blood type they were using by tasting it. (TV: The Christmas Invasion) While visiting Queen Victoria, he could tell there was mistletoe oil on some woodwork by licking it. (TV: Tooth and Claw) Similarly, the Eleventh and Thirteenth Doctors also determined geographic location of Earth, among other things, by tasting grass and soil. (TV: The Hungry Earth, It Takes You Away) While visiting Villa Diodati in June 1816, the Thirteenth Doctor tasted the powdery remains of a bony hand in order to determine its origin. (TV: The Haunting of Villa Diodati)

Non-human tongues

Some Time Lords could determine what was in a substance by touching it to their tongue. Romana II tasted a mineral with her tongue on Skaro to guess its composition. (TV: Destiny of the Daleks)

As a weapon

Certain species could use their tongues as weapons. Tetraps had a forked tongue which could inject a paralysing poison. (PROSE: Time and the Rani) One tribe of Silurians encountered in Wales had long tongues which they could flick to inject a venom, which was mutagenic to humans. (TV: The Hungry Earth/Cold Blood) Zygons had venom sacs in their tongues. (TV: The Day of the Doctor)

Lung

A lung was an organ used for respiration. Nardole had human lungs, which the Twelfth Doctor got for cheap (TV: The Pyramid at the End of the World) when reassembling him. (TV: The Return of Doctor Mysterio)

Non-human lungs

Instead of large lungs, Gallifreyans had a series of pulmonary tubes parallel to the lymphatic system. This made them buoyant, allowing them to swim with ease. (PROSE: Island of Death) They could also survive longer without much oxygen, past the point where a human would be unconscious. (TV: The Ark in Space, Smith and Jones, Mummy on the Orient Express, PROSE: Legacy)

Female Raxacoricofallapatorians could release poison with a dart from their finger. As a "final resort", the excess poisons were exhaled through the lungs. (TV: Boom Town)

Silurians had a greater lung capacity than humans. (TV: Deep Breath)

Non-organic lungs

Cybernetic lungs were developed in 2415, and were able to fully take the place of a patient's original lungs. (AUDIO: The Rise of the New Humans)

Oesophagus

The oesophagus was a part of the alimentary canal, located between the pharynx and the stomach. (PROSE: Byzantium!)

Larynx

The larynx was an organ in the neck of some creatures that moderated breathing and sound production.

The Doctor's larynx

The Fourth Doctor stated that Time Lord larynxes were able to "stand up to anything", explaining why his voice was not affected by inhaling helium. (TV: The Robots of Death) While attempting to deny having been asleep to Bliss, the Eighth Doctor claimed the sound of snoring came from him resting his larynx. (AUDIO: The War Valeyard)
