Based on the context and the definition, the word 'derivative' makes reference to something that is not the result of an original idea, but something that has been based on something else.

In this excerpt from "Poetry" by Marianne Moore, 'derivative' is used as an adjective in order to describe "things".<u> 'Derivative' is used to refer to something that does not offer new ideas because it has been developed from something else</u>. It has a negative connotation since it is used to criticize something. Moreover, in this excerpt, it is highly connected to the idea of  unintelligibility.

(A) a stone cannot be ethical because_________. (B) whereas human can be ethical because_________.
Sloan [31]
You didn't give the options. However, i'll try.
To me, a stone cannot be ethical because it cannot suffer. Indeed, the capacity for suffering must be satisfied before we talk about interest in a meaningful way. For instance, nothing we could possibly do for a stone could make a difference in its welfare. It don't have interest.  Whereas, we, humans have interest. Therefore we can be ethical because we are sentient beings that can be benifited or harmed. It's because we can experience pain as a result.
Hope this helps !
