Explanation

The requirement "After the customer has received an email confirmation, the customer is likely to access the order status in the order history which is available upon order submission" is not atomic because it includes multiple actions and outcomes within a single requirement. An atomic requirement should be independent, complete, and capable of being understood and implemented on its own without needing to refer to other requirements.
