Accepted Answer

# Brief Explanations:
- **For the first question**:
    - Ethics is often social in nature as it is based on social values, norms, and what is considered right or wrong within a society. Law is binding (enforced by legal authority), coded (written in legal statutes), and formal (has a structured legal process).
- **For the second question**:
    - Justice is about balancing the rights of different people involved in a conflict. Option a is more about international law. Option b is too subjective as it is based on the wishes of the wronged (not a balanced approach). Option d is about facts but not the essence of justice which is about right - wrong and rights balancing.
- **For the third question**:
    - The American colonists used the social contract theory. The social contract posits that the government's power comes from the consent of the governed. They argued that Britain violated this by not respecting their rights as if there was no mutual agreement (contract) in governance. Magna Carta is a British document related to limiting royal power but not the main principle here. Legally binding is a general legal term and precedent decision is more about legal cases following previous rulings.
