Explanation

Iteration Planning is a mandatory ceremony held at the start of every Iteration (sprint), serving as the foundation for fast learning cycles by allowing teams to inspect, adapt, and commit to a focused set of work - making B correct. A is wrong because in Agile, work items are self-assigned by the team collectively, not distributed by a manager or leader. C is wrong because the Product Owner's attendance is essential - they clarify priorities, answer questions about backlog items, and accept team commitments. D is wrong because Iteration Planning occurs at the beginning of the Iteration, not the end (that's the Iteration Review/Retrospective).

Memory tip: Think of Iteration Planning as the "kickoff meeting" - it always opens the Iteration, it's never optional, and everyone who owns the what (PO) and the how (team) must be present.
