Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Collaboration involves two types of data. Project data is data that is part of the collaboration's work product. For example, for a team that is designing a new product, design documents are examples of project data. A document that describes a recommended solution is project data for a problem-solving project. Project metadata is data that is used to manage the project. Schedules, tasks, budgets, and other managerial data are examples of project metadata. Another example of project metadata is the version number of a document.
