Why each option
This question asks for a risk response strategy that involves distributing a part of the project risk to another party.
Avoiding risk involves eliminating the threat entirely by changing the project plan or scope, not just diverting a portion.
Sharing risk involves allocating ownership of the risk, or a portion of it, to another party, often through contracts, insurance, or partnerships. This strategy directly aligns with diverting a portion of the risk to reduce its impact or likelihood on the original project by involving others.
Enhancing is a response strategy for opportunities (positive risks), not for diverting negative project risks.
Exploiting is a response strategy for opportunities (positive risks), aiming to ensure the opportunity occurs, not for diverting negative project risks.
