When a doctor is making a transplant on your body he replaces a damaged organ or tissue. An autograft is when a doctor takes a part of his/her well skin and and is transplanted to cover the sick skin.
Other times a person gets an organ or a tissue from another person. Allograft is what this is called. Like someone giving up a kidney to someone who is in need of one. A rejection is when the persons body doesn't recognize the transplanted organ.
Body Organization Sheet Answers
1: Because the person will get used to the rejection eventually.
2: Because you don't need to use another person if you can use your good skin.
3: Because the DNA/cells won't match (confused)
4: It is harder to transplant an organ system because you have many organs in a system which means the longer it takes and the more work if you take each organ out individually.
