controversy surrounding assisted suicide. What do you think? briefely describe about active and passive euthanasia and voluntary and involuntary euthanasia.
As we know that euthanasia is an practice of intentionally endome a life to relieve pain and suffering this technique is basically illegally but this gechntech are use in experimental animals to give them painless death..
But in some countries it is legally only with concern with an advocate in which the person accept that it is doing from his wish..
There are different type of euthanasia
For eg - voluntary and involuntary and passive and active ...
So the difference between these different techniques are.
Active euthanasia is that when death is brought by an act like an person killed by an overdose of pain killer.in which person die due to overdosing.and in case of passive euthanasia they don't directly take the patients life they just allowed them to die by an omission..
And the voluntorv and involuntary euthanasia is that..
Like voluntorv means from his or herself that means voluntorv euthanasia is occure at the request of the person who wants to die.
And the non voluntary euthanasia is that when the person is unconciounc or unable to make meaningful choice between living and dying and others person or his/her family members take the decision on his behalf. This type of euthanasia is legal because this is doing at that time when there is no hope.
And the involuntary euthanasia is where the person who dies chooses life and is killed anyway this is usually called mirder..
Hope u understand the answer..
Thank-you
