Answer:

D. shared authority

Step-by-step explanation:

It is correct to say that nurses Monica, Tracey and Leonard have shared authority, because they have authority in decision making without the intervention of each other.

This practice corresponds to a governance based on the collaboration and integration of the team, which assists in the nurses' autonomy and in the training in the decision-making process, where each responsibility is shared equally by all nurses, which contributes to the productivity of the work and more effective care for patients.
