Answer to Question 1

Ethics provides a framework for determining the right course of action in a particular situation. An ethical dilemma occurs when two or more ethical principles are in conflict and there is no obviously correct decision. Justice is an ethical principle of fairness. A moral dilemma occurs when there is a conflict between personal or religious beliefs.
