Why the other options are incorrect:
* A. Describe the solution:The Product Owner defines the "what" (desired outcomes), not the technical
"solution," which is determined by the Developers.
* B. Manage the Developers:The Product Owner does not manage the Developers. Developers are self- managing and self-organizing.
* D. Recognize titles:Titles have no significance in Scrum, and this is not a responsibility of any Scrum role.
