The text explained that descriptive morality refers to the study of various cultures’ moral beliefs and practices and normative ethics refers to the philosophical task of discerning which moral principles are rationally defensible.

Explanation:

Descriptive morality refers to the study of the beliefs, moral and social practices of certain social groups that differ in cultural and ethical terms. The purpose of descriptive morality is to describe how culture and customs change the ethical and moral vision of a group of individuals.

Normative ethics has the competence to reflect, justify and ground moral concepts. That is, through normative ethics we can understand the implications of the values adopted by various societies to guide the actions of individuals and their conduct within the social body, and how these values are justified. Normative ethics rationalizes understandings of moral values accepted and developed by social groups. That is, through normative ethics it is possible to discern which moral principles are rationally defensible.
