A. B. C. D.B.
The correct answer is B. Environmental; stakeholders.
Explanation:
Constraints are limitations that affect the project in some way, and influencers are factors that affect the project but are not necessarily constraints.
In this scenario, the project team has discovered that the construction site is the nesting area of rare birds. This is an environmental constraint because it is a limitation imposed by the environment. The presence of the birds would make it difficult or impossible to carry out the construction as planned.
The lobbyists who want the project moved down the road are stakeholders. Stakeholders are individuals or groups who have an interest in or are affected by the project. In this case, the lobbyists are concerned about the impact of the project on the rare birds and are advocating for a solution that would be better for the birds.
Therefore, the correct answer is B. Environmental; stakeholders.
