DUMMY ACTIVITIESThere is
D.
DUMMY ACTIVITIES
There is a need for dummy activities when the project contains groups of two or more jobs which have
common predecessors. The time taken for the dummy activities is zero.and no work
this arrangement is shown in AOA only.- an arrow diagramming method or activity on lines
option D is AON does not have any dummy activity in other word no such activity which has 0 duration and 0 work.
hence answer will be D
since it is negative question, hence earlier I marked C but now corrected.
it is out of pmbok 4

Correct Answer: (D)
Correct Answer: (D) Activity-on-Node (AON)
Explanation: Activity-on-Node (AON) doesn't use dummies in its Network diagram. A dummy is a dependency between activities with no work or time.
Activity On Node = Precedencce Diagraming Method(PDM) widely used. doesnt use dummy.
