Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1
Ethical dilemmas are situations that result in a conflict of two or more fundamental values. These dilemmas are complex and do not have apparent solutions.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1
This is an example of ethical behavior. Even though your classmate may not be happy with your response, it is the correct action. It is very likely that when the instructor learns of the problem, the instructor would delay the test for this student. If you had allowed her to see your paper, you share in the act of cheating with your classmate. Cheating is never ethical behavior. Also, students must adjust their lives so they have time for study.
