Answer:

The correct answer is: Yes, corporations are considered moral agents, and they have moral responsibilities and obligations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Corporations are special kind of entity, they are not considered as humans, but they have the same legal rights as humans. As they can act and affect others with their actions and decisions they must follow the same moral obligations and responsibilities as humans.
