How does change handling differ between MBT in sequential and iterative lifecycles?

Both handle changes identically

Changes are not allowed in either lifecycle

Sequential handles changes easily; iterative struggles

Sequential handles changes with difficulty; iterative accommodates changes more easily

A test manager is evaluating the benefits of MBT in two projects: one sequential and one iterative. Both projects have similar complexity. Which statement correctly compares the feedback loop in MBT between the two lifecycles?

In sequential, feedback from tests is delayed until the testing phase; in iterative, feedback is available within each iteration.

In sequential, feedback is used to refine the model; in iterative, feedback is used only to fix defects.

In sequential, feedback is immediate because testing starts early; in iterative, feedback is delayed until the end.

Both lifecycles provide the same feedback loop because MBT is independent of the SDLC.
