C.You tell the Product Owner to make sure that there are no ambiguities or possible misunderstandings in the items on the Product Backlog when they are handed over to the Development Team. This is best done by capturing thefunctional requirements during an analysis phase, resulting in documents that are considered as the working product of such analysis Sprints.

D.You advise the Product Owner to rely on the Development Team and the stakeholders to formulate the Product Backlog, as they are the ones most knowledgeable. By asking questions and working with them the Product Owner willquickly be up to speed.
