Patrick Maldonado · Answer 1

The correct answers are letters "A" and "D": More acceptance of the final decision is likely; More information and knowledge are available.

Explanation:

By making decisions in groups, all the members have an opportunity to share their ideas on what and how things should be done. Group decision-making will allow obtaining as much information and knowledge a group can provide. Besides, as the eventual decision will be the result of the mixture of the different ideas proposed, it is more likely than most members of the group will accept the course the group will take.
