Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
The Opportunity OWD is 'Private'.
Why this is correct
Private OWD restricts access even if the parent Account is visible.
- ✗
The Opportunity has a different record type.
Why it's wrong here
Record types control fields and page layouts, not visibility.
- ✗
The user is not in the Account Team.
Why it's wrong here
Account Team access doesn't automatically grant access to private opportunities.

The user's profile lacks 'Read' on Opportunities.
Why it's wrong here
This is a possibility, but less common than OWD issues.
