The system definition phase is the initial phase in the systems development life cycle (SDLC) where the developers use the management's statement of the system needs or the feasibility report to identify the high-level requirements and scope of the system. It involves defining the goals, user requirements, functions, and constraints of the system to be developed. Therefore, option D is the best choice.
