Answer: One of the reasons why it is illegal is that it is an advantage over the poorest and most vulnerable groups of people.
Explanation: Selling a kidney is part of what is known as "organ trafficking," which involves the removal of an organ from the body for commercial purposes. This activity is considered illegal in a large part of the world.
It is illegal to sell my kidneys or any other organ of my body since these practices take advantage of vulnerable and poor groups of people, where they obtain a profit well below what the organ is actually worth. Apart from this, selling an organ poses a health risk since it is in the body because it fulfills a function for its proper functioning.
Answer:
b) Ricky's need for belongingness is not being met.
Explanation:
Maslow proposed a theory based on a hierarchy of needs, this hierarchy is often depicted as hierarchical levels within a pyramid.
According to Maslow, needs lower down in the hierarchy need to be satisfied in order to focus in needs that are higher up in the pyramid.
The needs are:
- Physiological: refer to biological needs for human survival (food, warmth, sleep, etc)
- Safety needs: refer to protection from elements (security, order, stability)
- Love and belongingness needs: These has to do with the need for interpersonal relationships. (friendship, intimacy, love)
- Esteem needs: these needs refer to the need for respect or reputation (achievement, mastery, status).
- Self-actualization needs: Refer to realizing one own's potential and self-fulfillment. "To become everything one is capable of becoming"
According to the example, Ricky has a lavish home with an elaborate security system and he owns a luxurious car. <u>We can see that his safety needs (security) are being met.</u>
Also since he is a senior partner in a law firm with a luxurious car, <u>we can say that his esteem needs are being met too (achievement, status).</u>
However, <u>he lives alone and does not find the time to socialize, thus, there are no real interpersonal relationships in his life.</u>
We can conclude, based on this that Ricky's belongingness needs are not being fulfilled and this could explain his discontentment with life.
