Answer 1

Answer: divisional pattern

                                             

Explanation: In simple words, divisional structure refers to the organisational structure in which the organisation divides its operations on the basis of geographical regions or different products manufactured.

Such kind of structure is generally used by large organisation who are operating their business at a very high level, that is, organisations operating globally.
