Answer and Explanation:
The Correct Answer is C. Core Characteristics and Use-Related Characteristics are the two sub-principles of WBS Quality Principle 1. These principles are explained in the PMI practice standard for WBS. Note: This is probably one of the most obscure types of questions you will encounter on practice exams or on the actual PMP Exam. The PMI actually published a document separate from the PMBOK® Guide titled "WBS Quality Principles", which outlines the suggested guidelines to use when performing the Create WBS process. Please refer to this document (available at www.pmi.org) for more detailed information.
