The correct answer is D. Risk register. Even if stakeholders do not expect an impact, shared resources introduce potential dependencies and contention, which are inherent risks that must be documented in the risk register. This allows for proactive monitoring and management of potential issues.

Why each option
Even if stakeholders do not expect an impact, shared resources introduce potential dependencies and contention, which are inherent risks that must be documented in the risk register. This allows for proactive monitoring and management of potential issues.
Quality management metrics define standards and measure quality, not document resource allocation or potential sharing issues.
The Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) decomposes project deliverables, it does not detail how specific resources are shared or their potential risks.
A scope statement defines what is included and excluded from the project, but not the specific operational details of shared resources or their associated risks.
Shared resources inherently carry a risk of unavailability or contention, even if stakeholders currently don't anticipate an impact. These potential issues should be documented in the risk register as a potential threat to be monitored and mitigated if necessary.
