D Correct answer
Explanation

Plagiarism is the practice of taking someone else's work or ideas and passing them off as one's own. 'Obfuscate' means to make unclear, 'Lionize' means to treat as a celebrity, and 'Adumbrate' means to represent in outline. Only 'plagiarism' matches the description of intellectual theft.
