Select the best answer. Scrum is a newer way of doing things to address complex problems. It is a newer way because a) It offers new terminology for traditional practices. b) It is easier to master (implement) than the traditional way. c) It increases the opportunity to control risk and optimizes the predictability of progress. d) It is closely associated with emerging technologies.

C) It increases the opportunity to control risk and optimizes the predictability of progress. Scrum does introduce new terminology, but it is not the primary difference. Scrum is easy to learn, but difficult to master. There is incidental association of a lot of emerging technologies executed in Scrum, but that is not the reason for its identity as a newer way. Scrum does not guarantee success, but it increases the likelihood of success by controlling the risks and optimizing predictability. Correct answer is ‘c.’
