I think a better…

To Legalize or Not Legalize Organ Sales Think about a world with on organ shortage for transplants. This thought would be a real if organ sales were legal. Legalizing organ sales could have many benefits. Not to mean there is no negative factors, it is that the many benefits outweigh the many negative factors. An estimate of 120,000 people in the U.S. were on waiting list for organs with this list growing at an ongoing rate of 5,000 individuals per year in 2013 (MacKeller, 2014, pg. 53). The…

Introduction to Human Anatomy and Physiology, General Biology. I also tutored over the distance system using the video models which was really nice I got to learn how to use the advanced equipment they use at our college.

Organ transplants have become a life-saving therapy for thousands of people, and the demands for organs from patients with organ failure for exceeds the supply. While every day, about 18 persons dies because they are waiting on an organ, I disagree with the sales of human organs being legalized. The sale of human organs should not be legalized because it will benefit the wealthy but pressure the poor to sacrifice their own health, it would be more difficult to obtain an organ if donors can sell…
