Explanation

This is a two-part hotspot question where each statement gets its own Yes/No answer, yielding two correct selections: E for the first statement and A for the second.

Why E is correct (first statement): Department1's administrative unit directly contains User1, Group1, Group2, and Group3. Group4 is absent from the AU's membership, so any option including Group4 (D, F, H, G) is wrong. Options A, B, C are wrong because they omit one or more groups that are direct members of the AU.

Why A is correct (second statement): A User Administrator scoped to an AU can only directly manage users assigned to that AU - not users who happen to be members of groups within the AU. Since only User1 is a direct user member of Department1, only User1 falls under the scoped admin's management authority. Group2's members (and members of other groups) are not directly in the AU, so the admin has no jurisdiction over them.

Memory tip: Think of an AU as a walled garden - the scoped admin can only touch what's planted directly inside the wall (direct members), not what grows inside a pot (group members) placed inside the wall. Groups themselves are in scope, but their contents are not.
