Selected Answer: B

B. Activity or component start and finish dates, as well as intermediate milestones. This element is essential for effective schedule management as it helps in tracking progress against the plan. Knowing when activities are supposed to start and finish, along with key milestones, allows the program manager to monitor progress, identify deviations from the plan, and take corrective actions to prevent budget overruns.
