Answer to Question 1

C
Virtue ethics contends that virtues such as truthfulness and trustworthiness develop over time and that
an individual's character must be developed (not inborn) by nature and habit; therefore, the person will
be predisposed to behaving and living virtuously. Action based upon morals and unchanging principles
is a characteristic of deontological thinking, and whatever a person thinks is right is an example of
relativism.

Answer to Question 2

C, D, E, F
Plane crashes, fires, radiation leaks, chemical spills, and motor vehicle accidents are all accidental
human-made disasters. Natural disasters include famine, hurricanes, floods, earthquakes, epidemics,
and volcanic eruptions.
