What happens if the Development Team cannot complete its work by the end of the Sprint?
Correct Answer: B
If the Development Team cannot complete its work by the end of the Sprint, then the Sprint length holds and the Development Team continuously learns what is actually possible to do within a Sprint of this length, as stated in [7]: "If a Development Team determines it has overcommitted itself for a Sprint, one option is to collaborate with the Product Owner to negotiate removing or reducing scope. Another option is to simply work hard and do its best, without cutting quality or pressuring individuals. In either case, the Development Team learns from its experience and uses this learning when planning future Sprints."
Question 217
What are three benefits of self-organization? (Choose three.)
Correct Answer: A,D,E
According to the Scrum Guide, self-organization is one of the essential characteristics of Scrum Teams. Self-organizing teams choose how best to accomplish their work, rather than being directed by others outside the team. Self-organization enables teams to deliver faster and better results by harnessing their creativity and skills. Some benefits of self-organization are: Increased creativity, as team members have more freedom and autonomy to explore new ideas and solutions. Increased self-accountability, as team members take ownership and responsibility for their work and outcomes. Increased commitment, as team members are more engaged and motivated by having a say in how they work. The other options are not benefits of self-organization, as they may imply external control or pressure.

Question 220
A product Increment must be released to production at the end of each Sprint.
Correct Answer: B
The correct answer is B, because a product Increment does not have to be released to production at the end of each Sprint. The Scrum Guide states that "at the end of a Sprint, the new Increment must be 'Done,' which means it must be in useable condition and meet the Scrum Team's definition of 'Done'. An increment is a body of inspectable, done work that supports empiricism at the end of the Sprint. The increment is a step toward a vision or goal." Therefore, a product Increment must be potentially releasable, but the decision to release it is up to the Product Owner.
