true
false

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Early biological theories in criminology, like Lombroso's atavism theory, emphasized individual biological traits (e.g., physical stigmata) as causes of criminal behavior, rather than societal factors. Deontological ethics (e.g., Kantian ethics) focuses on duty and moral rules (e.g., "act only according to that maxim..."), not on the consequences of actions (which is more related to consequentialist ethics like utilitarianism).

Answer:

  1. True
  2. False
