Answer 1

Option D) element, task, job, position is correct as it lists the terms from the smallest and most specific to the broadest category.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks which list presents terms from the smallest and most specific to the largest and most general. According to typical organizational structures in a business context, an element would be the smallest unit, often referring to a specific action or part of a process. A task is a collection of elements forming a unit of work. A job consists of multiple tasks and a position may entail one or multiple jobs, being the broadest category. Therefore, option D) element, task, job, position correctly organizes these terms from the smallest and most specific to the largest and most general.
