Certified Scrum Master (CSM) – GAQM — Question 59

What is the primary responsibility of the Scrum Master?

Answer options

• A. To Prioritize the Product Backlog
• B. To remove any impediments the Development Team encounters during their work
• C. To work with the Product Owner to develop the Product Backlog
• D. To manage the Development Team

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the Scrum Master facilitates the process by helping the Development Team overcome obstacles that may hinder their progress. Options A, C, and D are responsibilities associated with other roles in Scrum; the Product Owner prioritizes the backlog, and managing the team is not the Scrum Master's role.
