Answer 1

Answer:

C. Co-operatives provides education and training only for the members

• Co-operatives do not limit education and training only to members.

• One of the key co-operative principles is education, training, and information, which extends not only to members but also to employees, elected representatives, and even the public, to help develop a better understanding of co-operatives.

The other statements are true :

• Members are actively involved in decision-making.

• Membership is open without discrimination.

• Dividends are typically based on members' transactions with the co-operative, not just capital contribution.
