Veronica Long · Answer 1

The correct option is b. the more unique your resource, the more power you will have.

Explanation:

A contingency can be described as the effect of activities of one sub-unit on another sub-unit. The more the contingencies of a certain sub-unit, the more will be the power of that sub-unit. For example, an engineering sub-unit will have power because it has unique skills of repairing breakdowns and hence its activities effect the other sub-units. The more the resources a sub-unit will have the more will be the power of the sub-unit.
