Solution

The correct option is C The donation or sharing in electrons
In a coordinate bond both the electrons in the bonded pair comes from a single atom whereas, in a covalent bond, electrons are mutually shared by both the atoms.
In ammonium ion, the fourth bond is formed by the donation of lone pair of N to H+.
