Well let's see what floor each one lands on and figure out which one is higher.

Something to note:

down = subtracting

up = adding

if something says it's doing something more than once, add it the number of times it's doing that thing. (You can also multiply it by that number but the adding way is a bit easier to understand and explain)

<u>Elevator 1:</u>

6 + 7 + 7 - 10 = 10

<u>Elevator 2:</u>

20 - 5 - 5 - 5 + 12 = 17

Elevator 2 ends on a higher floor (reasoning above)

They include;

1. Fewer chances of determining how effective the treatment plan would be.

2. Inability of every patient to access the experimental treatment.

3. Difficulties in making knowledgeable decisions on the treatment plan.

4. Determining that the experimental treatments are offered with the right motive.

Step-by-step explanation:

In medical treatment administration, it is standard practice that drugs undergo clinical trials on test animals before they are administered to patients. However, some sicknesses are without known drugs for treatment or may have drugs that are still undergoing experiments and trials. In such cases, patients may want to be treated with experimental drugs.

Ethical issues such as the above-listed can arise from this. The foremost of them all is the fact that the treatment might prove ineffective thus causing more problems to the patient.
