A ____ organization would more likely have characteristics of an organic organization:

A) bureaucratic
B) centralized
C) decentralized
D) none of these would have characteristics of an organic organization

Decentralized organizations tend to have more flexible structures, allowing for greater autonomy and decentralization of decision-making. This is a characteristic commonly associated with organic organizational structures. Bureaucratic organizations and centralized organizations, on the other hand, tend to have rigid structures with more control exerted from the top-down, which is associated with mechanistic organizational structures.
