homograft
A homograft, also known as an allograft, is a medical procedure that involves the transplantation of organs, tissues, or cells from one individual to another of the same species who is not an identical twin. This type of transplant is often used to replace damaged or defective tissues, such as in a skin transplant or a heart valve replacement. It is called a homograft because the donor and recipient are genetically different, but belong to the same species.
