Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Function is associated with specialization. Having individuals consistently perform the same or similar tasks and having divisions with specific functions can help expand the range of control.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Task forces composed of personnel reassigned from their usual duties are sometimes created for special projects. Establishment of a task force allows personnel with special qualifications to combine their expertise and concentrate on a project in a manner that would not be possible if they also had to perform their usual duties.
