Okay this is an inconceivable circumstance but I was wondering what would happen anyway. Lets assume that for whatever reason one of the animorphs needs a liver transplant or whatever. Obviously they can't go ahead and morph a new and better liver since that would arouse controller suspicion. So they knock whoever out, take their liver, and stick in a new one. Then what? Will the new liver morph with the rest of the body? Will the old liver come back with the new liver causing a serious problem? What would happen? I know it seems impossible, but will andalite morph tech compensate?

When you morphed into something else the liver would go along, I think, as long as you were taking the right drugs so it wouldn't be rejected and such.
But when you demorphed you'd probably grow your old liver right back. I don't know what would happen to the extra liver...maybe it would just hang out in Z-space?

Here is another stupid idea. Say you where a pair of siamese twins who could morph. Do they both have to morph at the same time or could one brain cause the other to morph aswell. Furthermore, what then would you morph a single animal. Would the brain that did the morphing be the only brain in control. Would the two people fuse together?
-
I'd ask what's a siamese twin, but I've been told to look up on google instead, so hold on...
I guess it would be something like cassie and aldrea in #34. either mind could make the body morph or demorph...and only turn into one animal, although the morph would be very weird...
but that's just my theory. almost no logic involved, other than they're the same body so they morph together.
-
Morphing is DNA related. I doubt a new kidney would remain after a morph/unmorph. The DNA doesn't know the kidney was replaced. Then again, under that assumption they would never age either...so I'm thoroughly confused. I'd have to then assume that the body returns to its pre-morph form, whatever that is.
Both siamese twins would have to morph together - one body, one morph. Or so I'd guess.
-
The morphs don't age but the morpher does.
Simaese twins probably morph together even when it only one mind. Just like in The Prophecy in some ways. It's basically one body but two minds that control the morphing process. If they were cut, I don't think a new twin would grow after a demorph. They're two separate entities.
I'm not sure about organ replacements though.

Given the ability of morphing to heal most injuries and illnesses, why would an animorph ever need a new liver. Couldn't they just morph away the damage to the existing liver? (What kind og liver damage would be impervious to morphing?)
