2. It provides guidance to the Development Team when they are forecasting their Sprint Backlog during the Sprint Planning.

6. It helps the Scrum Team decide how much time is needed before the Sprint can end.
Answer:-(2),(3) and (5)
Hint:-
When a Product Backlog item or an Increment is described as 'Done', everyone must understand what 'Done' means.

This Definition of Done provides the team guidance on what it takes to make the increment shippable.
