Why each option

The Satisfy traceability relationship links a solution component to the requirement it fulfills, allowing the BA to locate every component that must implement a given regulatory requirement.

ASatisfyCorrect

In the IIBA BABOK framework, the Satisfy relationship traces from a solution component back to the requirement it implements. By following Satisfy relationships from prioritized regulatory requirements, the BA can identify all solution components that need to be created or updated to achieve compliance with those regulations.

BDependency

A Dependency relationship indicates that one requirement relies on or is constrained by another requirement, not that a solution component implements a requirement.

CValidate

A Validate relationship links a requirement to the test case or acceptance criterion used to verify the solution meets that requirement, not to the solution component that implements it.

DDerive

A Derive relationship indicates that one requirement logically flows from or is derived from another requirement, not that a solution component satisfies a regulatory requirement.
