Answer: C - Process conflict is generally the easiest type of conflict to resolve within a group.

Key Takeaway: There are three types of conflict that commonly occur within a group or team: relationship, task, and process. Relationship conflict occurs when personalities clash and can be very difficult to resolve. Task conflict occurs when disagreement occurs about the tasks that the group is asked to perform. Process conflict occurs when people disagree about how the work is being done. Process conflict can often easily be resolved by the creation of roles and responsibilities within the group.
