Explanation
Qualitative risk analysis is the process of prioritizing risks for further analysis or action by assessing and combining each risk's probability of occurrence and its impact on project objectives. This is done using tools like the Probability and Impact Matrix, risk urgency assessment, and risk categorization. It is a subjective, relatively quick process compared to quantitative analysis. Quantitative analysis (Choice C) would involve numerical modeling of those risks. Risk identification (Choice A) precedes both analysis processes. A Risk Breakdown Structure (Choice D) is a hierarchical grouping of risk categories, not a prioritization process.
