Professional Scrum Master II (PSM II) — Question 120

What activities would a Product Owner do during an active Sprint?

Answer options

• A. Engage with the stakeholders and answer questions from the Development Team.
• B. Prioritize the Sprint Backlog.
• C. Participate at the Daily Scrum.
• D. Update the burndown chart.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because during an active Sprint, the Product Owner should focus on engaging with stakeholders and clarifying any questions the Development Team might have. Option B is incorrect as prioritizing the Sprint Backlog typically occurs before the Sprint starts. Option C is also incorrect since while the Product Owner may attend, their primary role during the Daily Scrum is not to participate actively. Option D is wrong as updating the burndown chart is usually handled by the Development Team.
