Answer to Question 1

C
Explanation: C) The phenomenon of groupthink describes situations in which group pressures for conformity deter the group from critically appraising unusual, minority, or unpopular views. So if you felt like speaking up in a meeting, a classroom, or an informal group but decided against it then the reason behind it could be groupthink.

Answer to Question 2

D
Explanation: D) The wheel relies on a central figure to act as the conduit for all the group's communication; it simulates the communication network you would find on a team with a strong leader.
