¿Qué significa esta pregunta?

¿Que tipo de persona eres? ( )Física ( )Moral

I was looking at the web page for the insurance company mentioned in another thread, GNP. This was a mandatory question in order to have them respond with an agent.

I'm unclear on what the two choices imply.

Física means that you are the actual person making the application for something--in this case, insurance.

Moral means that you are making the application on someone else's behalf.

Thank you both. I was thinking that moral meant the same as in english and I was trying to decide what the implications were of being physical or moral.
