Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Explicit knowledge is what is seen and directly known. Tacit knowledge is what remains unseen or unstated. Explicit knowledge can be learned through books, facts, objects, etc. Tacit knowledge includes the unspoken cultural norms - it requires making inferences, going beyond what someone explicitly does or says to what she means or
implies.
