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).

I agree with you all. 'Workflow' is definitely the way to go here. This seems like a pretty straightforward question, though I wonder if they'll try to trick us with something a little more obscure.

Ha! I was going to say 'schedule'. You know, when you have a bunch of activities linked together, that's your schedule for the day or the project. But I guess 'process' or 'workflow' make more sense.

Interesting. I was thinking 'workflow' might be the right answer. You know, when tasks are connected in a logical sequence, that's a workflow, right?

Exactly! 'Workflow' captures the idea of the activities being linked and forming a cohesive process. 'Schedule' is more about the timing, not the logical connection.

I think the answer is 'process'. When activities are logically linked, they form a process that can be managed and optimized.

Hmm, this question seems a bit tricky. What exactly do they mean by 'logically linked' activities? Are they talking about project management or just general workflows?
