Question

Options

• AThe Product Owner with the most valuable items placed at the top.
• BRisk, where safer items are at the top, and riskier items are at the bottom.
• CItems are randomly arranged.
• DSize, where small items ale at the top and large items are at the bottom.

• A
  90% (27)
• B
  3% (1)
• C
  7% (2)

Explanation

The Product Owner is solely responsible for ordering the Product Backlog, and the primary criterion is value - the most valuable items are placed at the top so the Development Team works on the highest-priority items first. The Product Owner may consider factors like risk, dependencies, and size when ordering, but these are inputs to a value-based decision, not the default ordering method. Options B, C, and D describe specific ordering strategies that might be used occasionally but are not how the Product Backlog is defined to be ordered in Scrum.
