I'm a bit confused about the difference between WBS and RAM in this context. I feel like A and B are both possible answers.

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think the CBS focuses on costs tied to deliverables. So, could it be D?

I think the CBS is related to work packages, so maybe it's A? But I'm not entirely sure if it could also relate to resources.
