Answer to Question 1

ANS: F
While philosophical and legal reasoning extensively overlap, employing many of the same concepts, they are not identical.



Answer to Question 2

ANS: F
Kantians are likely to be concerned that the child is being treated as property rather than as a person. They may also worry about the autonomy of the surrogate mother, at least in cases where she is seriously in need of money. Utilitarians, however, are more likely to see surrogate pregnancy as a win-win situation where everyone gets what they want.
