Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The question describes a group of individuals who have been officially established by the organization and given specific tasks and assignments. This is the definition of a formal group, as opposed to an informal group which may arise spontaneously and without official designation. While task force teams and teams may also be appropriate descriptions, they do not specify the formal nature of the group as established by the organization. Therefore, the best answer is E, formal groups.
