Correct answer: B
Explanation
According to the Scrum Guide, the Product Owner is accountable for maximizing the value of the product resulting from the work of the Scrum Team. The Product Owner is responsible for managing and ordering the Product Backlog, which reflects the desired features and outcomes of the product. The Product Owner is not accountable for managing the Development work, as the Developers are self-managing and decide how to do their work. The Product Owner is not accountable for guarding the Scrum Team from any interruptions, as that is one of the responsibilities of the Scrum Master. The Product Owner is not accountable for testing the Scrum Team's work against detailed requirements, as the Scrum Team works together to ensure that the Increment meets the Definition of Done.Discussion
