1. The cause-and-effect diagram also known as the Ishikawa diagram is used by organizations to find out the likely causes of unwanted problems. This diagram traces the roots of problems and helps managers discover the potential causes of these problems. The four M's that form the bone of the diagram to which other causes are traced include the;
a. material, which is about the products used in the production process and potential problems that can be attributed to them.
b. machinery/equipment, which is about the plant and likely problems that can arise from their use.
c. manpower, which is about the personnel used in the production process, and,
d. methods, which is about the systems adopted by the organization.

Answer:
The producer is experiencing diminishing marginal product.
Explanation:
The law of diminishing return explains that every additional unit consumed will have less utility/return than the previous one. Same is the case with labor productivity. The first unit of labor will yield maximum return, every additional unit will result in lesser return/productivity than the previous unit. The will continue up to the point of maximum return. After that point adding additional resources will yield less total output.
Answer:
b. All rocks in the Earth's crust will, at some point, be subducted and melted to create igneous rock.
Explanation:
There are 3 types of rock:
1. Igneous, wich are formed when 2 tectonic plates collide and magma goes to surface getting cold
2. Sedimentary: when many layers of preexistent rocks produce pressure and heat by weigth melting the rocks.
3. Metamorphic: a new rock is formed by chemical and/or physical reaction over preexistent rocks
Sedimentary and metamorphic would be subducted in order to produce new igneus rocks.
