A Correct answer
Explanation

Jeopardize means to put something in danger or risk harm. Empower (A) is the opposite because it means to give strength, authority, or ability - making something stronger rather than endangering it. Put in danger (B) is a synonym, upset (C) and thwart (D) are negative actions but not direct opposites, and diagnose (E) is unrelated.
