### Why this is right The material defines known risks as those that can be uncovered after careful evaluation of the project plan. Predictable risks are instead extrapolated from past project experience. ### The concept The classification distinguishes how risks become visible. Known risks can be identified by examining the current plan, predictable risks are inferred from experience, and unpredictable risks are difficult to identify in advance. ### Terms - **Risk classification**: Grouping risks according to their source or how they can be recognized. ### Remember Plan review reveals known risks; past experience helps predict predictable risks.
