Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
Under no circumstances would it ever be right for a person to stop CPR efforts is correct. De-ontology defines actions as right or wrong based on their right-making characteristics, such as fidelity to promises, truthfulness, and justice. Deontology does not look at consequences of ac-tions to determine rightness or wrongness. Fidelity to promises and beneficence may be principles upon which this statement is based on determining wrongness. I believe this disease was al-lowed by a supreme being does not reflect the deontological ethical theory. Because it reflects a relationship between disease and a supreme being, it follows the feminist ethical theory. He has become a stronger individual through experiencing the loss of his father does not best illustrate the deontological ethical theory because it is citing a consequence. It follows the utilitarian ethi-cal theory. The chemotherapy did not cure this person, but it provided a better life for him does not best illustrate the deontological ethical theory because it is citing a consequence. It follows the utilitarian ethical theory.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 3
The correct sequence for resolving ethical problems is recognizing the dilemma, gathering facts, examining one's own values, verbalizing the problem, considering actions, negotiating the out-come, and evaluating the action.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa.

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
