Brain transplant is possible, like if someone gets a heart transplant, they will are able to understand that they had a heart transplant, same for any other body parts. The brain transplant performed in the past on subjects which although died after a shot time showed us that brain could be transplanted like any other organ and the host would realize that their has changed just like in the case of a heart or any other transplant. But if we create a exact copy of a organism (say human like you), as now biological printers are a real thing (although they are unable to print complex organisms like us yet). Butif we are able to simulate every memory through recording each nerve action and simulating the same for the printed one of that organism to the original printed one, and create an exact copy.. It will be that organism but not it since it does not have the same conscious as the original one, it would have a free conscious than the original, then where actually lies the consciousness?
