Have you checked all these with your text or study materials?

??

yes

Then why are you wasting time posting them here? If you've checked in your study materials, you already know if they're right or not, yes?

On number six, obtaining resources may well be your book answer. But in the real world, you better build and test a prototype (or engineering design model) before you go further. Production details are always revealed in the prototype.

A much better answer would have been
e) build a prototype, and test it, before committing to a production or production schedule. This is true for both hardware and software.
Murphy's law is gained from experience, and I would bet your text author is somewhat slack in that management experience.

oops, that is question 5, not six.

oh ok. thanks bobpursley

1. To check the answer for question 1, we need to read the statement and compare it with the options provided. From the statement "One of the possible drawbacks of technology is," we are looking for a drawback or negative aspect of technology. Option D, "it can cause pollutions," seems to be a potential drawback of technology. Therefore, the correct answer for question 1 is D.

2. To check the answer for question 2, we need to read the statement and compare it with the options provided. From the statement "Choose the one statement which is true about technology," we are looking for a true statement about technology. Option B, "technology is always changing and causes change," accurately reflects the nature of technology. Therefore, the correct answer for question 2 is B.

3. To check the answer for question 3, we need to understand the components of a technological system and compare them with the options provided. In a technological system, inputs are consumed or processed by the system. Therefore, the correct answer for question 3 is C.

4. To check the answer for question 4, we need to understand the processes described in the options and compare them with the statement "involves planning, organizing, actuating, and controlling." The process that encompasses these activities is management. Therefore, the correct answer for question 4 is A.

5. To check the answer for question 5, we need to understand the production process and analyze the options provided. After analyzing the design, the next step in the production process would typically be obtaining resources. Therefore, the correct answer for question 5 is D.

6. To check the answer for question 6, we need to understand the term used in the question and compare it with the options provided. New technologies that are not widely used today, but may be in the future, are referred to as emerging technologies. Therefore, the correct answer for question 6 is C.

7. To check the answer for question 7, we need to understand the context of technology development and compare it with the options provided. Technologies that are too expensive or risky are often developed by the government. Therefore, the correct answer for question 7 is A.

8. To check the answer for question 8, we need to understand the different types of technology and compare them with the options provided. Transforming materials into products is typically associated with manufacturing technology. Therefore, the correct answer for question 8 is D.
