2. Partitions are equivalent to architecture levels.
3. Partitions enable different teams to work on different element of the architecture at the same time.

Answer options

• A. 1 & 3
• B. 1 & 4
• C. 2 & 3
• D. 2 & 4

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is A because partitions indeed help simplify management and allow different teams to work on various elements concurrently. Statement 2 is incorrect as partitions are not the same as architecture levels, and statement 4 is misleading since partitions do not necessarily reflect the organizational structure.
