Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Some employees in an organization tend to actively hoard knowledge, perceiving that their value to the organization drops as they share expertise with others. Employees may also judge that time spent adding to any knowledge base means time away from their other productive activities. They may become free riders and actively use the knowledge base to achieve their own goals, but they do not add to it. Their free riding eventually causes others to drop out as well, as they observe the imbalance. People may also be reluctant to share their time-saving tips because employers might then require higher workloads. In addition, enthusiastic early contributors to the knowledge base may get turned off as their content is critiqued or corrected by others.
