Answer:

Owners have limited liability and right to vote

Have corporate ownership structure

Step-by-step explanation:

As the question is all about corporation, we cannot consider LLP. Therefore, option A is incorrect.

Option B is incorrect. When a firm is owned by a single individual, it is called sole proprietorship.

Option C is correct. Owners liability of the corporation is limited to their invested amount of money. More importantly, the shareholders' have the right to vote.

Option D is correct. In a public-limited corporation, there are a specific corporate ownership structure.

Option E is wrong because there is a double taxation in a corporation.
