This is the definition of ethics The science of human duty; the body of rules of duty drawn from this science; a particular system of principles and rules concerting duty, whether true or false; rules of practice in respect to a single class of human actions; as, political or social ethics; medical ethics. This is the definition of morals n. 1. motivation based on ideas of right and wrong. So the way i am taking it is ethics is like a stander rule that is set by society and morals are somethings that are taught by what you see and hear. An example that is coming to mind is a crack whore that sells her body we as ppl looking in know it is wrong because of ethics but the child that has grow up seeing this might think it is moraly ok to sell your body to get things because they have watched their mom do it all their live. there for has no selfesteem and no love for other But i hope others answer this because i really an not sure just going off of what i read

The difference between ethics and morals can seem somewhat arbitrary to many, but there is a basic, albeit subtle, difference. I have seen the difference described this way: "Morals define personal character, while ethics stress a social system in which those morals are applied. In other words, ethics point to standards or codes of behavior expected by the group to which the individual belongs. This could be national ethics, social ethics, company ethics, professional ethics, or even family ethics. So while a person’s moral code is usually unchanging, the ethics he or she practices can be other dependent". To illustrate this, when considering the difference between ethics and morals, it may be helpful to consider a criminal defense lawyer. Though the lawyer’s personal moral code likely finds murder immoral and reprehensible, ethics demand the accused client be defended as vigorously as possible, even when the lawyer knows the party is guilty, even at the expense of setting him free possibly to murder again. The official Webster definitions are: Ethics 1: the discipline dealing with what is good and bad and with moral duty and obligation 2 a : a set of moral principles : a theory or system of moral values <the present-day materialistic ethic> <an old-fashioned work ethic> often used in plural but sing. or plural in constr. <an elaborate ethics> <Christian ethics> Morals: a : moral practices or teachings : modes of conduct

These two words are essentially the same. it all depends on how each is applied to a given different situation.

ethics is logicly doing the right thing. morals are doing the right thing from your heart.
