Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

Ethical values are a product of societal, professional, and individual ethics. Societal ethics are the moral values formalized in a society's legal system, in its customs and practices, and in the unwritten norms and values that its people follow in their daily lives. Professional ethics are the moral values that groups of similarly trained people develop to control their performance of a task or their use of resources. People internalize the values and norms of their professions just as they do the values and norms of their societies. Individual ethics are the personal moral values that people use to structure their interactions with other people. Personal ethics are the result of an individual's upbringing.
