Answer and Explanation:
The correct answer is D

The project management team are members of the project team who are directly involved in project management activities. A project management team manages a project team to achieve the project objectives. The project management team may consist of just one project manager. The project team includes project team members (i.e., people who carry out the project work). The project team can include supporting experts from HR, finance, or other functions of the business. The deliverables provided by the project team that meets acceptance criteria are formally signed off and approved by the customer or sponsor.


Details for each option:

A. The people who carry out the work to create the deliverables
Incorrect. The project team, not the project management team, directly carries out the work to create project deliverables.

B. A supporting expert who performs activities required to execute the project management plan
Incorrect. The supporting expert, not the project management team, assists the project with their specialized knowledge, skill, training, or experience in an application area, discipline, knowledge area or industry.

C. The people who validate and accept the project deliverables
Incorrect. The customer or sponsor, not the project management team, formally signs off and approves the deliverables after deliverables are inspected to see if they meet acceptance criteria. Typically, end-users or customer representatives, not the project management team, may help to validate the project deliverables.

D. One or more project team members with the responsibility of project management
Correct. The project management team is responsible for performing project management activities such as project planning, monitoring and controlling, reporting, etc.
