Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
The standard Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) process consists of four main phases in a specific order. First is Initiation, also known as Goal and Scope Definition. Second is Inventory Analysis (Inventory). Third is Impact Assessment. Finally, Improvement or Interpretation concludes the process. The correct chronological sequence follows Initiation → Inventory → Impact → Improvement.
