Answer and Explanation:
The Correct Answer is A. The PMBOK® Guide processes are applicable to the entire project if the complete project is a single-phase project. In the case of multi-phase projects, the PMBOK® Guide recommends that you treat each phase of the project as a sub-project and apply all the processes to each phase. You are about to start a new project phase, and as a result, you should start with the Develop Project Charter process.
