Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: In an open system, a manager must pay attention to all parts of the organization. Since the organization's reach extends outside of the organization itself, that means in an open system, management devotes attention to both the internal and external environments, which includes both inputs and outputs. This makes the choice indicating both the internal and external environment the correct response as it is the only choice that includes both internal and external environments.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
Explanation: Neither information nor services is a material item, so they are incorrect responses. Raw materials are inputs, not outputs, so raw materials is incorrect. Products is the only choice that refers to a material that is an output of a system, making products the correct response.
