Explanation:

Businesses, be them small ventures, or big corporations, are always in need of financial liquidity and cash flow in order to function. To be able to have such a flow, and according to research done on FAO websites, there are several ways in which corporations may increase the availability of funds to increase their activities. These sources are: capital market participation through stock issuing and bond issuing, private donations (although these are more common for foundations and non-profits), definitely through bank loans, which are among the most common means, and finally through government programs. Grants are very seldom, if ever, a source for capital, and definitely not in corporations. This is why it is the one excluded from the answer choices.
