Who is allowed to make changes in the Product Backlog?

The Development Team, but with permission of the Product Owner
The Product Owner
The Key Stakehodlers
Anyone

I thought its only Product Owner. Is it anyone ?

The Product Owner may do the above work, or have the Development Team do it. However, the Product Owner remains accountable.
