Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option based on the definition of a general partner in a limited partnership:

• Option 1: In a limited partnership, general partners manage the business and have unlimited liability for its debts. This matches the role of a general partner.
• Option 2: General partners are not necessarily equal to all other partners (limited partners have different roles and liability), so this is incorrect.
• Option 3: General partners have unlimited liability (not limited) and ownership percentage isn't the defining factor, so this is wrong.
• Option 4: A limited partnership can have one general partner, and the number isn't restricted to two, so this is incorrect.
