If there were no predators they would overpopulate (like us humans have). It would also mean the things that were once predators would die off, leaving only the producers and primary consumers to run the world (so pretty much the vegans/vegetarians and anything that doesn't eat meat, as well as plants).
Answer:
The Willowbrook study refers to a 14-year research which involved the use of demented children as lab animals in an experiment involving the study of Hepatitis for the purpose of developing a cure.
For a medical practice to be ethical, it must conform to the following rules:
It must be Autonomous: Autonomy in Medicine speaks to the right of rational and psychologically healthy adults to participate in their own medical care having been informed of all the consequences. Where children and adolescents are involved, the decision has to involve their parents. All parties (especially the children) must be in sync with the ramifications of the choices and legally capable of contributing to the decision making process.
It must speak in the direction of Justice: This principle tilts heavily towards the rights of the individual. It begs the following question:
can the medical decision be considered fair to the patient if it is held under the scrutiny of the law?
- is it consistent with their legal rights?
- viewed in from a balanced societal paradigm, it is fair?
3. Beneficence: This principle takes speaks to the requirement for all medical actions and or medical experiments to keep the benefit and wellbeing of the recipient and or participant above all other considerations. That is, if it is not beneficial, if it is harmful to the recipient or participant, then it's unethical.
4. Non-maleficence: This principle is often explained alongside Beneficence. The Medical Practitioners and or the Medical researcher is required by this principle not to take any actions that will harm or put the patient in harm's way.
According to the journals which discussed the Willowbrook Incident, all the four principles above were violated.
- There was no foreseeable benefit of the experiment to the children
- The children, mentally challenged, were incapable of electing to participate or not. Even if the parents allowed it, it was still morally wrong for the experiment to have taken place given that it was not in the benefit of the children.

Answer:
The best answer to the question: How does lobbying benefit the government, would be: Lobbying helps educate and inform lawmakers.
Explanation:
The process of lobbying, especially in the United States, but also in other countries, has been a constant almost from the origin of this country. Essentially, lobbying is defined as an attempt by individuals, or groups, outside of those who have been elected as lawmakers, who have a series of interests, and who seek to influence the process of lawmaking by making lawmakers aware of these interests. Because essentially these groups who exert the lobbying activity represent the interests and ideas of the public, or at least a part of the public, their task becomes one of educating and also informing lawmakers on the will of the people, and the interests of the people. In this way, final laws come taking into account, as well, the needs of the public whose voices may not be heard otherwise, unless it were election time.
