Explanation

In some simplified and foundational risk management frameworks, three core threat response strategies are presented: Accept (acknowledge the risk and decide not to change the plan, handling it if it occurs), Share (transfer or distribute part of the risk to a third party, such as through insurance or partnerships), and Avoid (change the project plan to eliminate the threat or protect project objectives from its impact).

Among the given choices, B best maps to a foundational set of threat responses.
