No. Although both <span>people </span><span>and </span>peoples<span> are grammatically correct, they cannot be used interchangeably because they have different meanings.</span>

<span>Case 1: When you use it in the sense of </span>one people, many peoples:
<span>Here, </span>people<span> (singular) means a group of human beings belonging to a particular race/ethnicity. The plural of such groups is called </span>peoples.
<span>E.g. </span>
<span>The different peoples of the world have very diverse traditions.</span><span>The Ukrainians are a nice people.</span>
<span>Case 2: When you use it in the sense of </span>one person, many people:
<span>Here, </span>people<span> means a group of persons. This is the regular and most common usage of the word </span>people.
<span>E.g. </span>
<span>There are more than a billion people in India</span>

Liula [17]

Answer:

If you looking for a fact check, then I believe they are all right, except for No. 3. Not sure on that one. I would have considered the option of false due to the fact that the moral conviction can and does occasionally rise out of careful deliberation,<em> </em>with <em>faith</em> and <em>tradition</em> weighing in heavily. It's through questioning and thinking that our most cornerstone beliefs are founded.

Explanation:

P.S.

<em>( I could be wrong, depending on the scenario, this is all personal opion and thought )</em>
