It also states that ''the Scrum Team consists of one Scrum Master, one Product Owner, and Developers''. Therefore, the correct answer is A, B, and D.

Professional Scrum Product Owner I (PSPO I) Sample Questions, question 1
User documentation is part of your Definition of Done. However, there are not enough technical
writers for all teams. Your Scrum Team does not have a technical writer. What should the
Scrum Team do?
(choose the best answer)
The Scrum Guide states that ''the Developers are the people in the Scrum Team that are committed to creating any aspect of a usable Increment each Sprint''. It also states that ''the Developers can do the work of any other role on the Scrum Team, as long as accountability is met''. Therefore, the Developers on the Scrum Team should write the user documentation, as it is part of the Definition of Done and the work needed to deliver a ''Done'' Increment. The other options are not acceptable, as they violate the Scrum values of commitment, focus, and respect, and they create dependencies, delays, and waste.

Professional Scrum Product Owner I (PSPO I) Sample Questions, question 12
Which of the following are true about the length of the Sprint?
(choose the best answer)
The Scrum Guide states that ''Sprints are the heart of Scrum where ideas are turned into value''. It also states that ''Sprints have consistent durations throughout a development effort. A new Sprint starts immediately after the conclusion of the previous Sprint''. Furthermore, it states that ''Sprints are limited to one calendar month. When a Sprint's horizon is too long the definition of what is being built may change, complexity may rise, and risk may increase''. Therefore, the correct answer is B. The other options are not acceptable, as they contradict the Scrum principles of empiricism, self-organization, and adaptation.
