Answer to Question 1

Boom Correct answer

Answer to Question 2

Context affects information flow. In high-context cultures, information spreads rapidly and freely because of the constant close contact and the implicit ties among people and organizations. Information flow is often informal. In low-context cultures, information is controlled and focused, and thus it does not flow so freely. Compartmentalized roles and office layouts stifle information channels; information sources tend to be more formal.
