Ethical Dilemma #1 The charter yacht that you were on has just sunk. You and seven other
individuals have escaped the sinking ship and are currently in a lifeboat. The
lifeboat is equipped with 3 days of provisions for 4 people. It could be several
weeks before you are rescued, if at all. What should be done?

d. i assume the underlined word is "role." reformat if it isn't.

explanation:

role is closest to part because when replacing words, "playing a vital decision," "playing a vital activity," and "playing a vital dollar" don't make logical sense. the only meaningful choice is "playing a vital part."

this fits one of merriam-webster's definitions of role: "a function or part performed especially in a particular operation or process."
