A WBS dictionary is a document which…

  1. … describes technical terms used for scope management.

  2. … describes the details for each component in the WBS.

  3. … translates essential WBS terms for global project teams.

  4. … helps translate functional into technical requirements.

The correct answer is: … describes the details for each component in the WBS.

A WBS dictionary is a document that provides a detailed description of each component included in the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS). This includes information such as the name, code, description, and other relevant details for each component. Option A is incorrect because a WBS dictionary does not specifically describe technical terms for scope management, but rather provides information about the WBS components. Option C is incorrect because a WBS dictionary is not a translation tool for essential WBS terms, but rather a document that supports communication within a project team. Option D is incorrect because a WBS dictionary does not help translate functional requirements into technical requirements, but instead provides information about the individual components of the project.
