Answer:

b. Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1.

Explanation:

The Pregnancy Discrimination Act "prohibits sex discrimination on the basis of pregnancy." According to the act, "if an employee is temporarily unable to perform her job due to pregnancy, the employer must treat her the same as any other temporarily disabled employee".

Therefore, since Jean claims she cannot lift 90-pound boxes due to her pregnancy, she should be protected by this act.

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

b. They reflect the laws and regulations that affect social and economic behavior.

Explanation:

Morals are not universal and vary greatly depending on the underlying culture and religion. Even still in each civilization, there are many grey areas in the concept of morals. One thing that seems to be constant is that they reflect the laws and regulations that affect social and economic behavior. In this scenario, some developing countries believe that using children as a cheaper form of labor is fine since the children are getting paid and therefore, there are no laws prohibiting this action so people see it as morally correct. While other countries that see it as morally wrong have laws and regulations to prevent people from performing such actions. These laws and regulations are a form of dictating social and economic behavior by stating that it is morally wrong.
