Attempted by 36 students.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Correct pairings:
Requirements Capture → Domain Analysis. Domain analysis is the activity of studying the problem domain and eliciting and documenting requirements, so it pairs with requirements capture.
Design → Structural and Behavioral Modeling. Design creates architecture and models that describe system structure and behavior, so it pairs with modeling.
Implementation → Module Development and Integration. Implementation covers writing code and integrating modules, so it matches development and integration activities.
Maintenance → Performance Tuning. Maintenance includes activities after deployment such as performance improvements and bug fixes, so it pairs with tuning.
Tip: Match each lifecycle phase to its primary activity: capture→analysis, design→modeling, implementation→development, maintenance→tuning.
