Explanation

To ensure clarity and avoid ambiguity, the BA shouldchoose an appropriate format to communicate requirementsbased on the audience. The BABOK® Guide (Chapter 5.3 - Specify and Model Requirements)states that presenting requirements instructured formats (such as user stories, process models, or use case diagrams)makes them easier to understand and reduces misinterpretation. Making requirements testable (Option A)is important but does not necessarily improve clarity. Aligning test scenarios (Option C)helps with validation but does not address ambiguous Using checklists (Option D)helps in reviewing quality but does not solve formatting issues.
