C is unrealistic. Conflicts can happen, but it doesn’t mean they aren’t cross-functional.

The team needs to have a diverse set of skills to be considered cross-functional. Option A seems to be the best answer.

Pair programming and Test-Driven Development are great practices, but I don't think option D fully captures what cross-functional means.

I remember a practice question that mentioned conflicts being a sign of dysfunction, so option C seems off to me.

I think option A is the way to go. The team as a whole needs to have the right mix of skills, even if individual members don't necessarily have to be able to do every single task.

I'm not sure about this one. The question is a bit tricky. I might need to review the Scrum Guide again to make sure I understand what cross-functionality really means in this context.

Option A sounds like the best answer to me. The whole point of a cross-functional team is that they have all the skills needed to get the work done, not that every individual can do everything.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused. I thought a cross-functional team meant everyone could do everything, but option B doesn't seem quite right either. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I think the key here is that a cross-functional Scrum Team has all the necessary skills to deliver an Increment by the end of each Sprint. So I'd go with option A.
