C could be the right answer bcz in Agile, a team member is allowed to add a story into the backlog, but then PO who decides whether the feature is a valuable item or not.

Selected Answer: C
C = correct. The Developers can add new PBIs into the PB, but cannot prioritize them. A = wrong. Only the PO can prioritize the backlog.

Option C. In an agile framework, the product backlog serves as the single source of truth for all requirements. If a new requirement arises during a sprint, the team should add it to the product backlog for prioritization by the product owner in the next sprint planning meeting.

C is correct. New requirements should always be captured as user stories in the product backlog. The PO would then refine/groom/prioritize the new requirement with the team.

A. Work on requirements that the product owner may have overlooked = Wrong. D.T. can't work on stories that are not prioritized with P.O. B. Record the scope creep in the change management log = There is no such artifact in Scrum. C. Add the new requirement to the product backlog = The best answer. P.B. can be the tool to communicate through Scrum Team. D. Ask the scrum master to secure additional time and resources = S.M. does not allocate or secure resources. It can be the correct answer in terms that S.M. should shield and support the team, but C is the best answer.

A. This is very unprecise, rest of requirements could be unrelated and be a waste of time ---> X B. Scrum does not have change management log ---> X C. If the new requirement is not in the product backlog already, how the scrum team member has found it? Also can this person add it to the product backlog if he/she is not the PO? ---> X D. Not sure if a Scrum Master role is supposed to to this ---> ?

I don't think it's the best answer but I think it's C. PO is part of the scrum team. The other choices do not make any sense.
