Solution
The team member who works on the first two projects only is D.
Here's the step-by-step reasoning:
From the given information, we know that D is involved in Project 1. Since no member works in more than 3 projects or fewer than 2, D must be involved in at least one more project.
Given that one of the team members is only available for the first 2 projects, and since D is already involved in the first project, it's reasonable to conclude that D is also involved in the second project.
Therefore, the answer is D.
