Answer to Question 1

It is not an object of reason.

Answer to Question 2

The advantage of using naturalistic explanations is that it is insightful, and leads us to understand the basic functions of our species. The disadvantage is that they can easily commit the naturalistic fallacy. The naturalistic fallacy is that that the way in which we behave cannot tell us how we ought to behave. The fact that we desire something does not tell us that the desire is good. Therefore, the use of naturalistic explanations can lead to unethical behavior.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water.
