First you need a team of people to work on, then you should know the project scope, once you know the scope you can details out activities and resources required. Then you assign resources and all this will finally result into a project schedule.

Hi,
The answer is "D"
The answer can be reached through elimination process as well:
Project Scope Statement - We have not collected the requirements yet
Activity List and estimates - not possible unless you have WBS
If you are referring to Rita's book also,she clearly mentions Acquire project team should be read as Acquire final project team.Acuiring the inital team occurs early in planning stage.
Could you please mention the source of the question?

Dear Chullan88,
You said that, did not collect requirements.. Then how can you conclude answer "D". (Identifying team from functional Mgr).
Are you saying initial team can be acquired without "Collect requirements" and Create Scope?

Scope
b) Begin creating a Project Scope Statement.
You can't do the others until you know the scope of the project.
