Answer:

Hello There!!

Explanation:

Franklin was also a true man of the Enlightenment, embracing science, reason, natural human rights, free thinking and morality. He personally did not agree with many of the rules and doctrines of religion as taught in church, favoring basic moral virtues that served “practical” purposes in the lives of men.

The Enlightenment was an intellectual movement in the eighteenth century that emphasized reason and science.The British colonist Benjamin Franklin gained fame on both sides of the Atlantic as a printer, publisher, and scientist. He embodied Enlightenment ideals in the British Atlantic with his scientific experiments and philanthropic endeavors.Enlightenment principles guided the founding of the colony of Georgia, but those principles failed to stand up to the realities of colonial life.

hope it helps,have a great day!!

Should companies be able to own the DNA contained in plant seeds?
Snowcat [4.5K]

Companies should not be able to own DNA in plants.

Explanation:

It is against the spirit of the world at large and very ill advised to allow companies to own seeds and their DNA which would make them monopolize the produce of certain plants over another.

This can lead to catastrophic changes in the ecosystem as well as the risk that some plants required by people to be free will become costly and lobbied for.

This is a capitalistic endeavor that would lead to too much power in the hands of the corporations.

Bobby (a 4 year old) told his grandfather that he was "bossy" because his mom had said so in the kitchen when he was playing. La
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Preconventional level

Explanation:

Kohlberg did some studies on morality and proposed a theory on moral development.

Kohlberg defined three different levels of morality (and each level consists in 2 stages). These levels are:

preconventional,

conventional and

postconventional

In the preconventional level, the person's morality is externally controlled and therefore acts based on what the <u>punishment or reward</u> will be (1st stage) or based on how good will it be for him/her to act in some way (2nd stage)

The conventional level stages also have to to with external controls but now the person thinks in function of ensure positive relationships and societal order. The third stage here depends on the approval of others. The fourth stage has to do with accepting rules because they preserve the society order  and functioning.

The postconventional level stages are defined in more abstract principles or values. The 5th stage sees the world as a place with different values that must be respected. Finally the 6th stage is based in universal ethical abstract principles.

In this example, Bobby called his grandfather "bossy" thinking he would give him a piece of candy. Thus, <u>Bobby acted based on the reward he would get from his grandfather</u>. Therefore, Bobby would be in the preconventional level stage of moral development.
