Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ratification means that the principal (Elin, in this case) approves of and accepts the actions of the agent (Call) even if those actions were not initially authorized.

Options A and D do not involve ratification but rather involve taking legal action against Call. Discharging Call (Option B) does not necessarily equate to ratification either.
