Answer to Question 1

B
Matrix structures are complex, integrated organizational structures that involve both functional and service or product-line managers. In this structure, team members or teams from various functional departments may combine to complete a project or program, thereby becoming re-sponsible to both their functional department manager and their product-line manager.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, D, E, F, G
