Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Correct completion: Activity, Longest, Dependent, Duration
Explanation:
Activity chart: a project schedule shown as a directed graph where activities (tasks) are nodes and arrows represent precedence relationships.
Critical path: the longest sequence of dependent tasks (tasks linked by precedence with no slack).
Project duration: the critical path determines the minimum time needed to complete the project. Any delay to a task on the critical path delays the entire project.
Key takeaway: the correct phrase fills are Activity (chart), Longest, Dependent, Duration.
