Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

In Scrum, a sprint is a time-boxed iteration of work during which a specific set of tasks is completed and delivered. During a sprint, daily standup meetings, also known as daily Scrums, are held to provide an opportunity for team members to communicate with each other and coordinate their work.

The purpose of daily standup meetings is to ensure that team members are aware of what each other is working on, identify any issues or obstacles that need to be addressed, and coordinate their efforts to ensure that the tasks for the sprint are completed on time. If daily standup meetings are not held or enforced, it can lead to a communication gap and a lack of coordination among team members, which can negatively impact the progress and success of the sprint.
