Answer: C

Explanation:

In Workfront, if a task that is part of the critical path is delayed, it affects the overall project schedule. Even though the task is not overdue yet, Workfront’s automated system flags the project as "At Risk" if there is a delay in progress that could impact the project’s timeline. This "At Risk" condition acts as a warning to project managers and stakeholders that immediate attention is needed.
