Selected Answer: A
Governance refers to the framework of rules, processes, and decision-making structures that guide how an organization operates and how projects are managed. Within governance frameworks, there are typically established processes for managing changes in project scope, including assessing their impacts. Therefore, the business analyst (BA) would use governance principles to determine the formality of the assessment process to understand the impacts of the scope change. This involves following the established protocols and procedures outlined in the governance framework of the organization or project to ensure that changes are properly evaluated, approved, and implemented.

As BABOK said : BA will determine the formality of the assessment process based on the information, the apparent importance of the change and the governance process. I'm going to say that all answer are good, but, the question ask us to "understand the impact of the scope change", and for that, you need to listen to the stakeholder. So answer D, stakeholder engagement.
