Abstract
This thesis is concerned with the so-called second Euclid-Mullin sequence, which is a sequence that arises from Euclid's proof of the infinitude of primes. It has been proven that infinitely many primes are missing from this sequence. In this thesis, two such already existing proofs are analyzed and expanded upon.
