Explanation
Pharmaceutical pedigree documentation serves as a chain-of-custody record, tracking every transfer of ownership and handling a drug product undergoes from manufacturer to dispenser - making B correct, as this is its core regulatory purpose under laws like the Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA). Options A and D (promoting sales, enhancing brand image) are marketing concepts entirely unrelated to pedigree, which is a compliance and traceability tool. Option C (simplifying design) describes an engineering or manufacturing concern, not a documentation function. Memory tip: Think of a "pedigree" the way you would for a purebred animal - it's a documented lineage proving where something came from and who handled it, step by step.
