Xenotransplantation

xenotransplantation is the transfer of living cells, tissues and organs from one speices to another.

allotransplantation: transfer of living cells, tissues, and organs from the same species.

the problem is that the most common xenotransplantation is from pigs that have shorter life spans than humans, causing their organs to function, and die quicker. there is also disease transmission of xenozoonosis, and the permanent alteration of genetic codes(DNA) in humans.
