Answer to Question 1

Answer: B
Explanation: B) Telepresence enables realistic conferences in which participants thousands of miles apart almost seem to be in the same room.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: D
Explanation: D) Conducting successful meetings over the phone or online requires extra planning before the meeting and more diligence during the meeting. Because virtual meetings offer less visual contact and nonverbal communication than in-person meetings, leaders need to make sure everyone stays engaged and has the opportunity to contribute. Paying attention during online meetings takes greater effort as well. Participants need to stay committed to the meeting and resist the temptation to work on unrelated tasks. So it is harder, but not impossible, to do it. It also increases distractions and does not eliminate the need for someone to take minutes.
