Dear partnership is a relationship between two or more persons who join together and agree to work for each other on sharing of profit or loss

And a single partner can continue the business but not under partnership because on retirement or death of other partners partnership get dissolved but not the business and that single partner may continue the business under sole proprietorship.

Partnership is always between two or more persons. In case of death of one partner, his/her legal heirs can participate and in case of retiremnent, either a new partner should join or the remaining partner can apply for carrying business as sole propertership.
