The word Ethics is derived from the Greek word ethos which means manner, character and usage.

Moreover, ethics is a practical science by which it explores the appropriateness of man's behavior, action and demeanor. It deals with how man should think, choose and behave in situations that consider the individuals and group's beliefs.
