Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Traceability can help a business analyst determine the full impact of a change on requirements. When changes are presented and/or approved, traceability helps the business analyst determine what changes affect other requirements within the set. Answer: C is incorrect. A coverage matrix can be used to help facilitate tracing of requirements. Answer: A is incorrect.

Integrated change control is a project management activity, not a business analysis tool, so this choice is incorrect.
