Assignment: Human organ donation and sales
Recall your readings in Topic 1 regarding human organ donation and sales. In the article, "Kidney Shortage Inspires A Radical Idea: Organ Sales,"
Dr. Francis Delmonico believes that even a regulated human organ trade would be exploitative because "it's the poor person who sells" (Meckler, 2007). Answer the following questions:
• Do you agree that allowing a poor person to sell an organ is an exploitative practice? Why or why not?
• What documented examples from real-life organ donors can you provide to help you demonstrate how a regulated human organ trade would (or would not) be exploitative?
• If you were writing your definition essay on the term exploitative, how would you define it?
You may revisit the Human Organ Donation and Sale Resource List from Topic 1 for resources. Be sure to cite all sources used to compose your answer. Format your in-text citations and reference list entry according to GCU Style.
Chapter 2 of the textbook discusses two scenarios in which evidence may not meet some audience's expectations. In the first scenario, two scientific studies are in conflict with each other In the second scenario, a child psychiatrist uses stories from his patients rather than statistics as evidence. Each case poses a problem regarding the use of evidence: We sometimes have difficulty reconciling conflicting pieces of evidence, and we are reluctant to see stories, rather than statistics, as valid evidence. In the essay that you are writing right now, what kinds of evidence have you found? In what way might it meet an audience's expectations? Name the audience, discuss how it may meet--or not meet--the audience's expectations, and explain why. Later in the week, compare your observations about evidence with those of your classmates.
