A It allows for flexible design and development.
B It provides early indication of insurmountable risks.
C All requirements must be known upfront, inhibiting flexibility.
Correct Answer
D It encourages iterative and incremental development.
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Hint

Consider the sequential nature of the Waterfall model and its impact on adapting to changes.
