Why each option

The Plan Risk Responses process requires updates to project documents including technical documentation when risk responses affect technical aspects of the project.

AScope statement

The scope statement is a component of the project scope baseline and is not listed as a standard project document update output from Plan Risk Responses.

BLessons learned

Lessons learned are captured throughout the project but are not a specific output document update from the Plan Risk Responses process.

CRisk Breakdown Structure

The Risk Breakdown Structure is a tool used in risk identification and planning, not a document updated as an output of risk response planning.

DTechnical documentationCorrect

Technical documentation must be updated as a project document update when risk responses introduce changes to technical approaches, designs, or specifications. PMBOK identifies project document updates - including technical documentation - as a key output of the Plan Risk Responses process when response strategies alter how technical work will be executed.
