Which term describes a business owned by one or more legal entities, where the entities can be individuals, partnerships, or other corporations?

• A. Corporation
• B. Corporate Family
• C. CUI
• D. Counterintelligence

Answer: (A)

A corporation is a distinct legal entity that can be owned by shareholders. Those owners can be individuals, partnerships, or other corporations, and the corporation itself has its own rights and liabilities separate from its owners. This structure fits the description of a business owned by one or more legal entities, where the owners may be people or other companies. A corporate family refers to a group of related corporations under common control, not a single business. CUI and Counterintelligence are unrelated to this concept.
