The relationship between law and ethics can be complicated. Some ethical rights and duties have been codified into law, but there are still some complications. Why is it difficult to make ethical rights and duties into law? Choose three answers.

Laws are created through the political process and therefore often involve compromises among competing interests and industries.

Laws cannot codify all ethical requirements and may sometimes be difficult to interpret and apply.
