Wait, are we sure about that? I thought Internal could be a thing.

I remember "Mandatory" and "Discretionary" for sure, but I’m a bit confused about what "Critical" really means in this context.

I’m leaning towards "Internal" being the odd one out, but I might be mixing it up with something else we covered in class.

I practiced a similar question, and I feel like "Critical" is definitely a type of dependency, but I can't recall the specifics about "Discretionary."

I think I remember that there are three main types of dependencies, but I'm not sure if "Internal" is one of them.

I think the answer is C. Discretionary dependencies are not one of the identified types in Scrum, so that must be the correct choice.

I'm a bit confused on this one. Can someone remind me what the different types of dependencies are in Scrum?

I've got this! The fourth type of dependency is internal, which is not one of the identified dependencies in Scrum.

Okay, let's see. I know there are critical, mandatory, and discretionary dependencies, but I'm not sure what the fourth one is.

Hmm, this one seems tricky. I'll need to think carefully about the different types of dependencies in Scrum.

Internal dependencies? Sounds like the kind of thing that happens when the Scrum Master forgets to bring the donuts to the daily standup. Gotta watch out for those hidden pitfalls!

Internal dependencies? Is that like when the Scrum team gets trapped in a never-ending cycle of daily standups and sprint planning? Better choose D and hope for the best!

Internal dependencies? That's a new one on me. I'm going to go with D on this one. Probably some attempt to trip us up on the exam. Time to start practicing more Scrum questions!

I agree, it must be a trick question. We should definitely review more Scrum concepts.

I think D is the correct answer too. Internal dependencies seem unusual in a Scrum project.

Ling

Hmm, let me think. I know Scrum has critical, mandatory, and discretionary dependencies, but I've never heard of internal dependencies before. Guess I better brush up on my Scrum knowledge!

I'm pretty sure the answer is D. Internal dependencies are not a type of identified dependencies in Scrum. But why is that one not included? Sounds like a tricky question!
