Universal Ethics are a set of principles which apply to all humans, whether secular or religious, independent from any particular faith, so i would go with B.

because that is your choice depending on your faith

ANSWER: b. a man giving up his seat for a woman

EXPLANATION: Universal Ethics is a set of rule or principle which is needs to be followed by everyone and is applicable irrespective of caste, color, race, faith or religion. A man giving his seat to a woman is a gesture of chivalry and not a universal ethics. The man may have needed the seat more desperately than the woman due to any of his physical inabilities but giving up the seat to a completely healthy woman would not be part of his ethics.
