Correct answer: C
Explanation
In agile projects, planning is critical to project success but it is different than traditional projects. Planning is an ongoing process and provides multiple mechanisms to proactively update the plan. It is not one time stand-alone activity. Total planning is more but distributed, adaptive planning means plan to replan and responding to change is a way to uncover requirements and adaptively plan the agile project.The Agile Manifesto
