Pre-frontal Cortex (PFC)

The PFC is often one of the last regions of the cerebral cortex to fully develop. It is the area of the brain most associated with executive function, logic, reason, and some anticipation of consequences.
Research estimates that most females' PFC is nearly fully developed by ages 16-21; however, males lag in this development of their PFC by an average of ages 19-24.
Thus, before legal age (18), minors (males > females) are more apt to partake in risk-taking behaviors.

Answer:

D. Ethical differences

Explanation:

Ethical differences usually emanate when two parties hold conflicting ethical beliefs of what is right and wrong, or do not hold similar grounds on how a particular thing should be done. As a result of the differences in the acceptable custom or conduct, ethical differences arise between both parties. Since it is the custom and norms of the government of Krusho to require bribe for the approval of certain projects, of which might run contrary to the ethical beliefs of MNCs, dealing with this ethical difference is what MNCs must face doing business with them.
