    A) Delegate authority but not responsibility

    Explanation:

    Authority can be delegated, but not responsibility.

    Terrence can give Emma the authority to decide on what will happen to their new promotional project, but if something goes wrong Terrence will be responsible for the failure of the new project. Also if things go smoothly and their new project is very successful, Terence will be responsible for the success of the new project.
