There are two procedures. In one of the procedures, called active euthanasia, the person is injected with a lethal substance that leads to death.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, in the second procedure called passive euthanasia, the necessary treatments are withheld that hinders the continuity of life and therefore leads to death. In the present world euthanasia is one of the most active areas of research in the field of bioethics.<br \/>\n<strong>Should euthanasia be legalized?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Few feel that euthanasia should be legalized.

Since no consensus has been reached yet, different countries have different laws regarding euthanasia. While some are in support of it, others prohibit it. There are a few countries that have legalized passive euthanasia but are against active euthanasia.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\n<strong>Sources for Photos:<\/strong> thesaltlist.wordpress.com, papermasters.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The word euthanasia is derived from Greek word \u201ceu\u201d which means good and \u201cthanatos\u201d which means death.
