• D

Explanation

Option A is correct because Daily Scrum, Sprint Review, and Sprint Retrospective are the three official Scrum ceremonies that function as feedback loops - they create inspect-and-adapt cycles at different cadences (daily, end-of-sprint for the product, and end-of-sprint for the team process).

B is wrong because "Daily Standup" is an informal/common name, not the official Scrum Guide term. Scrum uses "Daily Scrum" - exams test precise terminology.

C is wrong because "Release Planning" is not a Scrum event. Sprint Planning is, but it's an input/planning ceremony, not a feedback loop in the Scrum framework.

D is wrong on two counts: "Grooming" (now called Backlog Refinement) is not a formal Scrum event, and "Daily Status" doesn't exist in Scrum at all.

Memory tip: Think D-R-R - Daily Scrum (daily feedback), Review (product feedback), Retrospective (process feedback). All three use the official Scrum Guide names, and each answers a different question: Are we on track today? Did we build the right thing? How do we improve our process?
