B) Loss of life or limb? Yikes, that's a real buzzkill, isn't it? At least it's a clear-cut answer, unlike the rest of these options.

C) Safety training? That's just good business sense. Pure risk is like getting hit by a meteor or something. No one can plan for that!

A) Loss of investment is not pure risk. That's just business risk. You can't really control that kind of thing.

B) Loss of life or limb is the textbook example of pure risk. Anything that can cause physical harm or damage is pure risk.

I'm not sure, but I think A) Loss of investment is also a type of pure risk because it involves the possibility of financial loss without any potential for gain.

I agree with Lynette, because pure risk involves situations where there is only a possibility of loss, like loss of life or limb.
