Final answer:

The answer to the question is 'a) Multinational Corporation', which is a business established in one country but operating in others.

Step-by-step explanation:

A multinational corporation is a type of business ownership that is formed in one country but operates in another country. This definition directly responds to the student's question and tells us that among the options provided (Multinational Corporation, Domestic Partnership, Limited Liability Company, Sole Proprietorship), the correct answer to the type of business that operates in multiple countries is a multinational corporation.

New businesses like sole proprietorships are organized by one individual and are not separated from their owner in terms of liability and debt. A general partnership involves two or more people who share both the responsibilities and profits of the business. Unlike these business forms, a multinational corporation can control the production of goods and services in multiple countries, without regarding national borders.
