Reveal correct answer

Correct answer: D

Explanation

In Scrum, risk is minimized by having at most one month Sprints. The larger the uncertainty, the more the Scrum Team needs feedback on shorter cycles; hence, shorter Sprints. Another factor that might be useful is synchronizing the development cycle with other business events.
