Answer:

in the Brain Stem

Explanation:

When the gun has fired the casing of the bullet would have been expelled from the gun and most likely landed on the floor, while the projectile in this scenario would have entered the victim's brain and destroyed the brain stem. Most likely stopping in the brainstem or nearby it. This is the most likely scenario because the brainstem is what completely controls the bodies breathing, heart rate, and other important functions of the body by giving it instructions. Damage to the brain stem would cause breathing and heartbeat to stop immediately as all communication would come to a complete stop between the brain these organs.

Who is most likely to give in to peer pressure and start substance abuse
posledela

Answer:

Explanation:

To say that someone is a peer implies that they are of equal standing. It can mean people who are of the same age, economic class, or grade within a profession. A peer group refers to a group of people of roughly the same age and status who spend time together. Peer pressure is the influence these people have on the life of the individual. It involves adapting behaviors that the individual would otherwise not adapt. If members of the group value a particular behavior there will be a kind of pressure to conform to this. So if friends drink alcohol, or use drugs, it can be hard to say no. Peer pressure can be a force for good or bad.

Project: Ethics and morals
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

ETHICS :

Ethics or moral philosophy is a branch of philosophy that "involves systematizing, defending, and recommending concepts of right and wrong behavior".The field of ethics, along with aesthetics, concerns matters of value, and thus comprises the branch of philosophy called axiology.

Ethics seeks to resolve questions of human morality by defining concepts such as good and evil, right and wrong, virtue and vice, justice and crime. As a field of intellectual inquiry, moral philosophy also is related to the fields of moral psychology, descriptive ethics, and value theory.

Three major areas of study within ethics recognized today are:

1. Meta-ethics, concerning the theoretical meaning and reference of moral propositions, and how their truth values (if any) can be determined

2. Normative ethics, concerning the practical means of determining a moral course of action

3. Applied ethics, concerning what a person is obligated (or permitted) to do in a specific situation or a particular domain of action.

MORALS :

A moral (from Latin morālis) is a message that is conveyed or a lesson to be learned from a story or event. The moral may be left to the hearer, reader, or viewer to determine for themselves, or may be explicitly encapsulated in a maxim. A moral is a lesson in a story or in real life.
