Which command runs a single command with elevated privileges as another user?
- Asudo, which executes one command as a permitted user
- Bchmod, which executes one command as a permitted user
- Cchown, which executes one command as a permitted user
- Dumask, which executes one command as a permitted user
Why this is the answer
sudo runs a command as root or another user per policy. chmod only changes file permission bits and cannot raise privileges for a command.
