Answer to Question 1

TRUE
Special favors, such as recommending you for a job, and thoughtful actions, such as sending
flowers or a gift, should be acknowledged in writing with a thank-you note. This is an example
of professional courtesy.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
Confidentiality is an important aspect of ethics. Right-to-privacy laws have been passed to
legislate confidentiality in certain instances. For example, medical records, attorneys' client
files, certain education and court records, and banking and financial records are considered
confidential information.
