• BSprint planning, daily stand-up, review meeting, and retrospective

Explanation

According to the Scrum Guide, there are exactly four official Scrum events (ceremonies) that occur within each sprint: Sprint Planning, the Daily Scrum (daily stand-up), the Sprint Review, and the Sprint Retrospective. Option A incorrectly includes a 'grooming session' (backlog refinement) as a mandatory ceremony - while backlog refinement is a recommended practice, it is not an official mandatory Scrum event. Option C incorrectly includes a 'kickoff meeting' (not a Scrum event) and omits Sprint Planning and Retrospective. Option D incorrectly includes 'release planning' and 'grooming session,' neither of which are mandatory Scrum ceremonies. Option B correctly lists all four and only the four mandatory Scrum events, making it the correct answer.
