There are several advantages of an implanted device. Since it is implanted in the body, there are few, if any, external parts to wear and daily maintenance is minimized. In addition, the system is more directly targeted to the effected area. The disadvantage of implanted devices is they do involve a surgery which can lead to a system that is more expensive.

External devices, by the nature of being outside the body, can not be as targeted as an implanted device. There are also external components to wear and the daily maintenance of those components. Since they are outside the body, they can be less expensive than the implanted device. Another advantage of an external device is the ease to discontinue the use of the system.

To plants, nutrients are the same regardless of their origin. Nutrients in "organic" fertilizers must be converted to an "inorganic" state before they can be utilized by plants. Equivalent amounts of nutrients will provide the same nutritional value to plants. One major advantage of organic fertilizers is the addition of organic matter to the soil. The added organic matter provides many benefits to the physical, chemical and microbiological environment of the soil. See similar questions...

The use of synthetic fertilizers is not allowed in organic agriculture because the substitution of natural, renewable resources for plant nutrition with non-renewable petrochemicals is not sustainable, disrupts natural cycles, pollutes the environment through runoff and leaves toxic residues in the soil, just to name a few of the negative implications. Organic farmers use legumes ? peas, beans and other plants ? that naturally fix and enrich nitrogen in the soil. See similar questions...

Organic fertilizers come from sustainable, renewable sources, such as alfalfa and other natural biological materials, which do not contribute to global warming. When these fertilizers are applied to the soil, they are unlikely to leach into groundwater and are far more likely to improve soil health, fertility, and water retention capacity. Organic fertilizers are like building an annuity for your lawn that will pay you back for many years to come. See similar questions...

Using tissue from one's own body in breast reconstruction most natuarally mimics the tissue lost in mastectomy. For this reason, it is often the best choice if appropriate. However, using natural tisse requires that it be taken from another area on the body (donor site). Transferring tissue (called the "flap") from one part of the body to another carries a small risk of partial or complete loss of the flap. See similar questions...
