Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Cooperation occurs when two or more parties are working together towards some common goal. Cooperation is essential to organizational success. Competition occurs when two or more people, groups, or organizations are seeking to maximize their own gains, often at the expense of the other parties. With competition there are winners and losers. Positive consequences of conflict include:
1 Improving the quality of organizational decisions.
2 Bringing problems that have been previously ignored out in the open.
3 Motivating people to appreciate others positions more fully.
4 Encouraging people to consider new ideas.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
