Answer 1

Answer:

Mechanistic

Explanation:

Mechanistic is the correct answer as it is clearly mentioned that the person just placed the order and takes the payment which very categorically means that intervention in the entire process is quite less which is the basic definition of Mechanistic unlike the other given options.

Answer 2

Answer:

Mechanistic

Explanation:

He is not actively involved in the cooking and the final packaging of the cooked food. As these two steps, there are other steps involved in the whole process. He is directly in contact with the shift manager and also interacts with the general manager of the company. Therefore this type of organization is a mechanistic organization.
