This already happens with identical twins, who split from a single embryo at some point in their development. The only difference with splitting later in life

This already happens with identical twins, who split from a single embryo at some point in their development.
The only difference with splitting later in life is that you'd share more life memories from before the split.
- raducu 6y agoTransplantin a twins brain would still render the person a complete legume, not even the cranial nerve connections would be the same(sight, smell, hearing, touch of the face), let alone the spine nerves. All the nerve wiring would be wrong. DNA does not contain all the intricate nerve connections, just a meta-summary on how to build them.
