Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: Capital, information, and human resources are all nonmaterial inputs in an open system organization. Only raw materials are actual physical, tangible items that can have mass and take up space as matter, making raw materials the correct response.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C
Explanation: An organization is not a one-way or a closed system since information flows freely both in and out of the system. This characterizes the organization as an open system in which inputs come in and outputs flow out, making an open system the correct response. A virtual system is not correct because the organization is a real entity, so it is not virtual in any way.
