Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Values are general criteria, standards, or guiding principles that people use to determine which types of behaviors, events, situations, and outcomes are desirable or undesirable. There are two kinds of values: terminal and instrumental. A terminal value is a desired end state or outcome that people seek to achieve. Quality, excellence, and profitability are examples of terminal values. An instrumental value is a desired mode or type of behavior. Examples of instrumental values include working hard, respecting authority, and being honest.
