Selected Answer: C
C is correct. The team should capture all risks and dependencies in the product backlog, and then prioritize the risk /dependencies based on the sprint goal in every sprint. It cannot be A, because doing work without dependencies is not the priority in Agile, the priority is the most valuable feature/stories. What if all highly valuable features have dependencies? In this case the team needs to capture and manage risks/dependencies as per the Sprint Goal.

Only the product owner can do the prioritization. So the answer should be A

These are technical dependencies, not usual user stories. So Team members can certainly prioritize based on value optimization. Value optimization needs to be done by PO. So my answer would be C.
