A. It identifies the focus and method of the research project.

Before one begins anything, one needs a plan.  Say you were traveling; beyond knowing where you wanted to go, what you would really need to know is how you intended to get there.  The same can be said for the construction of a research project.  A research plan will contain your goals, strategy for your research, what your resources are, perhaps a bit of a bio, significant/relevant research on your topic that already exists, and any preliminary findings you already have and what you have done so far.  All of these components will identify your focus and methods and help you get to where you want to go with regard to results of your research.
