Answer:

a. breach of the duty of loyalty

Step-by-step explanation:

Breach of the duty of loyalty happens when a trustee acts in a way that advantages himself at the expense of the partnership or corporation.

When the trustee embezzles a business opportunity for his own gain, when clearly the opportunity belongs to the corporation.
