Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Determining the system's requirements is the most important activity in the systems development process. If the requirements are determined completely and correctly, then design and implementation will be easier and more likely to result in success. Sources of requirements include existing systems as well as the forms, reports, queries, and application features and functions desired in the new system. Security is another important category of requirements. Because requirements are difficult to specify, building a working prototype can be quite beneficial. Whereas future systems users often struggle to understand and relate to requirements expressed as word descriptions and sketches, working with a prototype provides a more direct experience.
