C.
The project scope statement must be understood to see the project requirements and the inherent risks of the project.

D.

Explanation:

The project scope is an input to the qualitative risk analysis process and it helps define the type of project work the project centers on. This can help to determine the level of risk analysis that will need to be done on the project.

Answer option C is incorrect. Some project work will include risks based on the type of the work that’s being conducted, but this is not the best answer to the question.

Answer option A is incorrect. Quality is the conformance to requirements and a fitness for use. This is not applicable to this question.

Answer option B is incorrect. The scope may identify the project constraints, but it is not the best answer for this question.
