In this situation, the project manager should prioritize resolving the defect and minimizing its impact on the project schedule. The correct course of action would be: C. Acquire knowledgeable resources. Here's the reasoning behind this choice: Acquiring Knowledgeable Resources: Since the former engineering team has moved to another project, and no one knows how to fix the defect, the first step should be to acquire knowledgeable resources who can understand and resolve the issue. This may involve hiring or temporarily assigning experts who have experience with the technology or area where the defect occurred.
