This is a key characteristic in an organization with a functional structure
A) adaptability
B) departmentalization
C) flexibility
D) little specialization
Answer: B
Explanation: The hallmark of a functional structure is departmentalization. An organization that has functional structure is essentially a sum of individual parts, each one being a separate department. Adaptability and flexibility are traits one would be likely to see in an organic organization of some type, so those choices are incorrect. Similarly, one would expect to see a great deal of specialization in a functional structure, making "little specialization" incorrect.
