Being responsible for your actions and taking any consequences.

• A. Accountability
• B. Responsibility
• C. Liability
• D. Duty

Answer: (A)

Accountability is being answerable for your actions and accepting the consequences that follow. That directly captures the idea of owning what you did and being willing to face what comes from it, which is why it fits best. Responsibility is about duties or tasks you’re entrusted with; you can have responsibility without necessarily being held to account for the outcomes. Liability is legal responsibility, often involving compensation or legal risk, not the broader notion of personally owning results. Duty is an obligation or requirement, but it doesn’t inherently include bearing the consequences of actions.
