The correct answers to this question are B. Temporary and C. Start and finish.
A project is defined as a temporary endeavor undertaken to create a unique product, service or result. Therefore, the first characteristic of a project is that it is temporary, meaning that it has a defined start and end date. Once the project is complete and the goal is achieved, the project is closed.
The second characteristic of a project is that it has a start and finish. This means that there is a clear definition of the scope of work that needs to be done, and a defined goal or objective that the project is intended to achieve. Once the goal has been achieved, the project can be closed.
The other answer choices are not characteristics of a project:
A. Ongoing: Projects are not ongoing, they have a defined start and end date. D. Achieving a goal: This is a characteristic of a project, but it is not one of the two options to choose from in this question. E. Consisting of milestones: While milestones are often used in projects to measure progress, they are not a defining characteristic of a project. F. Restricting the budget: While budget is an important aspect of project management, it is not a defining characteristic of a project.
