Answer:

C. using related diversification to acquire parenting and restructuring synergies

Step-by-step explanation:

When diversification initiatives are being used to create value, a business organization needs to separate its capital into different sectors in order to make sure that benefit that both customers and shareholders received from the operation is increased.

Parenting synergy only give the authority about a business decision to another organization (usually bigger and more experienced). It does not guarantee that the consumers or shareholders would be benefited in any way. It even might create larger risk for shareholders since they become uncertain how the new management will operate.
