Explanation

Define Activities is the process of breaking down work packages from the WBS into smaller, more manageable schedule activities. This decomposition is key to creating a realistic schedule. Adjusting duration estimates (A) modifies existing time estimates rather than decomposing work. Rolling wave planning (C) is an iterative planning technique, not a decomposition task. Developing the milestone list (D) identifies significant project events but does not decompose work packages.
