Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Trust is a significant factor in the development of a manifest conflict. If the individuals involved possess trusting attitudes, they share information and control and recognize their mutual vulnerability. In the absence of trust, individuals may withhold information so it cannot be used against them or distort communications to their advantage.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Affective states such as stress, tension, anxiety, fear, mistrust, anger, and hostility are present during felt conflict.
