The chance of losing something?

• A. Risk
• B. Aptitude
• C. Feasibility study
• D. Venture creation

Answer: (A)

Risk is the chance that something could be lost or harmed as you pursue a venture. It combines the likelihood of adverse outcomes with their potential impact, helping you anticipate and plan for possible losses of money, time, or resources. Aptitude describes inherent ability, not potential losses. A feasibility study looks at whether a project can work and be viable, not the chance of loss. Venture creation is the act of starting a business, which involves risk but doesn’t define the concept itself. So the term that best describes the chance of losing something is risk.
