Answer:

A. Many thought it a waste of money and called it "Seward´s Folly".

Explanation:

The reaction to the purchase was mostly positive because many people believed that Alaska would serve as a base to expand American trade to Asia. Those against the purchase labeled it "Seward´s Folly" or "Seward´s Icebox" because they thought that the U.S. government had acquired useless land.

In the case presented, the main source of the conflict can be attributed to "status differences" considering Bethany who is one of the main parts involved in the conflict is a senior marketing manager, which means she has a higher status than Ken that is only supervising the group and because of this, Bethany probably believes she should not follow Ken and he should not be the leader but her. In this way, this difference between the status of Ken and Bethan makes Bethany resist Ken and take actions against him.
