Answer:

B) She has to share all of the profits with the partner.

Step-by-step explanation:

A partnership is a business owned by two or more parties while a sole proprietorship is owned by one person. In the former, decisions are made jointly and the process might take long since all partners must consent to it. Another disadvantage is that all profits are shared between or among all partners unlike a sole proprietorship where the owner takes all the profits.
