Answer:

In that particular case Dale would have none of these defenses because:

- <u>He cannot allege duress</u> because his life was not threatened in any situation, he has a safe way to escape and avoid the crime.

- <u>He cannot allege mistake</u> because even when Phil (undercover agent assigned) was thinking that he (Dale) was breaking the FCPA laws, the crime was not commited yet. Dale effectively commited a violation knowing the laws and consequences.

- He cannot allege entrapment because he was not pushed or encouraged by Phil (FBI undercover agent) to do the crime, Dale commited the violation without the influence of any law officer.

The correct option will be option "D".

The worldwide use of cleaner energy sources could lead to which of the following results?
Leni [432]

The second alternative is correct (B).

The economic matrix in force in the world is based on the burning of fossil fuels, mainly petroleum, which releases amounts of CO2 and other gases in the ozone layer.

The acid rain is due to the exaggerated amount of products from the burning of fossil fuels released into the atmosphere. That is, human activities are mainly responsible for this phenomenon of acid rain.

Thus, the change to a clean energy matrix, using solar, wind and other energy, can result in a decrease in the phenomenon of acid rain.
