Answer and Explanation
7. According to the PMBOK®
Guide, which of the following is not a valid activity
dependency?
a.Mandatory Dependency
b.Internal Dependency
c.External Dependency
d.Discretional Dependency
Sample PMP®
Exam Question
HINT: This question references the Sequence Activities process.
8. The correct answer is B
The PMBOK Guide recognizes three types of dependencies;
Mandatory, Discretionary and External. The PMBOK Guide
doesn't recognize "Internal Dependencies" as a type of
dependency. Did it confuse you that one of the answers used
the term "Discretional Dependencies" instead of
"Discretionary Dependencies"? Expect that even on the
actual PMP exam you will come across questions where
terminology does not exactly match the PMBOK Guide. Even
considering that "Discretional Dependencies" is not the exact
same term as “Discretionary Dependencies”, "Internal
Dependencies" is even less correct and therefore the correct
answer.
Answer and Explanation
9. According to the PMBOK Guide, a WBS is not directly involved in which of the
following processes?
a.Develop Project Management Plan
b.Define Activities
c.Create WBS
d.Define Scope
Sample PMP®
Exam Question
HINT: Develop Project Management Plan process creates the Scope
Management Plan.
10. The correct answer is D
The Develop Project Management Plan
process carries out scope planning, which
documents how the WBS will be created and
defined. Define Activities takes the WBS as an
input and decomposes it to define activities.
Create WBS creates the WBS itself. The
Define Scope process must be completed
before the Create WBS process can be
started.

explains each work package in great detail.
This information includes Contract Information
regarding the work packages, Quality
Requirements, and the Responsible
Organization. However, the WBS Dictionary
