Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

The trait approach would disagree claiming that effective leadership is a function of personality characteristics and cannot be taught. Behavioral theory claims that successful leaders possess two dimensions, consideration, and initiating structure, which can be taught. Merely having the requisite traits doesnt mean that the person will automatically become a successful leader. Alternatively, someone without the right stuff cannot be trained to be a successful leader. Contingency theory examines the interaction between traits, behaviors, followers, and the situation.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
