Task 1:
Here's a simple argument structure:
- Premise 1: Dogs are animals.
- Premise 2: All animals need to eat in order to live.
- Conclusion: Therefore, dogs need to eat in order to live.
The conclusion logically follows from the premises. From Premise 1, we see that dogs are a part of the group called 'animals'. In Premise 2, we see that every member of this group 'animals' needs to eat to live. Hence, since dogs are part of this group, dogs must also need to eat to live.
Task 2:
Imagine this situation, you're walking one day and find a wallet filled with money on the ground. It appears someone has lost their wallet. So, a dilemma arises between keeping the money which wasn't yours in the first place but you found it, or attempting to locate the owner and return the wallet to them.
Task 3:
Let's apply Deontology to the earlier stated dilemma. Deontology is about following a set of defined moral rules or duties, regardless of the outcome or consequences. In this case, one major rule could be to not take what isn't rightfully yours. So, applying this rule to our dilemma, even though you have found the wallet and no one will probably know if you kept it, it is still not ethically correct to keep it without trying to return it to its owner. You didn't earn it and it wasn't given to you, hence it doesn't belong to you. Therefore, Deontology directs us to attempt to return the found wallet to its rightful owner, irrespective of the monetary benefit we could otherwise receive, establishing an ethically sound resolution to the dilemma.
