Why each option
The question describes a scenario requiring a risk response strategy where 'avoidance' means changing the project plan to eliminate the threat entirely.
This choice appears to be a partial sentence that sets up a scenario, not a risk response strategy itself.
Mitigation aims to reduce the probability or impact of a risk, not eliminate it entirely.
Risk avoidance involves changing the project plan to eliminate the threat entirely, often by choosing an alternative approach or scope. If the incomplete question implies Sam must avoid a hurricane risk, changing project location or timing would be an avoidance strategy.
Passive acceptance means doing nothing to avoid or mitigate the risk, simply accepting its potential impact without planning.
Active acceptance involves developing a contingency plan in case the risk occurs, but not trying to prevent it.
