Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

An activity is an individual element of work that is logically linked to other activities to

form the schedule. Its primary characteristics include an overall duration based upon the resources

applied to it (manpower, material, and equipment), as well as a start and

completion date that is tied to a work calendar. It also has a relationship with other activities

(predecessors and successors).

Tasks and critical path scheduling for sure. Hammocks and flags just sound like they're trying to trip us up. This isn't a furniture store or a battlefield, it's a scheduling question!

Flags? I guess if we're scheduling a game of capture the flag, that could work. But for a regular activity, I think tasks are the way to go.

Critical path scheduling makes sense, but I'm not sure how that fits into making schedule models. Shouldn't we start with the basic building blocks, like tasks?
