Explanation

Project scope statement is a direct input to Scope Verification because it defines the agreed-upon deliverables and acceptance criteria against which completed work is formally inspected and accepted by the customer or sponsor - you can't verify scope without first knowing what scope was promised.

Performance reports (A) are an input to performance reporting and monitoring processes, not scope verification - they track how the project is doing, not whether deliverables match accepted requirements. The WBS (B) is a planning document that decomposes scope but is not the primary input driving the formal acceptance meeting; it supports scope definition rather than driving verification decisions. Requested changes (C) are typically an output of Scope Verification - when stakeholders inspect deliverables and find issues, they generate change requests rather than bring them in.

Memory tip: Think of Scope Verification as a "contract check" - you bring the original contract (the Project Scope Statement) to the table and compare what was delivered against what was promised. No statement = nothing to verify against.
