- E. Managing the Product Backlog items and work in the Sprint Backlog.
- F. Removing organizational impediments that limits the team's progress and productivity.
Correct answer: B, D, F
Explanation
The correct answers are B, D, and F because they reflect the Scrum Master's role in ensuring that Scrum is effectively understood and applied, managing the Scrum process itself, and removing impediments that affect the team's performance. Options A, C, and E are incorrect as they pertain to reporting or managing team members and backlog items, which are not primary responsibilities of the Scrum Master.
