Answer to Question 1

 Ethics involves doing what is right or correct and is generally used to refer to how people should behave in a professional capacity.
 Absolute ethics has only two sides: Something is either good or bad, black or white. Some examples in police ethics would be unethical behaviors such as bribery, extortion, excessive force, and perjury, which nearly everyone would agree are unacceptable behaviors by the police.
 Relative ethics is more complicated and can have a multitude of sides with varying shades of gray. What is considered ethical behavior by one person may be deemed highly unethical by someone else.
