Answer 1

What most accurately describes data lifecycle management (DLM) is: It refers to the tools and processes for handling data during a research study and after it concludes.

Answer 2

I believe the answer is: It refers to the tools and processes for handling data during a research study and after it concludes.

Data life cycle management would provide a record of information flow from the acquirement , initial storage, until the time when the information becomes obsolete after done being used  and  deleted. DLM could be used by other researchers who want to test/review the validity of other researchers' work, to know why and how a certain data is used during the research.
