Which organs of the body can't be transplanted?
Just to clarify your question, if the organ cannot be transplanted there is no "recipient", since nobody receives the organ. The brain is not transplantable in humans. It has been performed in labs on animals, with mixed outcomes. However in humans it is unclear whether there are any medical conditions which would actually benefit from a 'brain transplant', let alone other ethical questions of performing such a procedure. The large intestine is not commonly transplanted because it is not necessary to sustain life (however it is medically possible). Likewise, the stomach, gall-bladder and appendix are not necessary for survival.
Were do they get the organs to be transplanted?
Kidney's are usually transplanted from a family member who is a match as you only need one. Other organs such as lungs and heart are transplanted from a recently deceased person who had opted to donate their organs at the time of their death, they are then removed from the donor and taken to the receipient who is in most need of the particular organ who is most likely to be a match. (blood type etc. is taken into consideration)
