Answer to Question 1

C
Power that comes from professional and personal relationships that enhance one's resources and the capacity for learning and information sharing is known as connection power. It involves developing good working relationships and mentoring with your boss and other powerful people. Reward power involves being able to reward or punish others. Information power is based on what information one can provide the group. Referent power is based on trust and respect that people feel to the organization.

Answer to Question 2

A
Politics exist because resources are limited and some people control more resources than others. Resources include people, money, facilities, technology, and rights to properties, services, and technologies. Individuals, groups, or organizations that have the ability to provide or control the distribution of desirable resources are politically empowered.
