Well first of all,
A sole trader works alone, he/she is liable for everything about the business, day-today running of the business, its success and failure. If he/she fails, he/she will lose not only his/her business but his/her losses will extend to his/her personal possessions too to cover the cost of the business.The capital investment is comparatively less,The managerial ability of a sole trading concern is limited.
In partnerships, the business is organised by partners and owned equally amongsts them. The decisions are made by the partners equally as they all have equal votes. With liability, its the same as a sole trader, however it is divided amongst the number of partners there are. Due to the nature of the business, different partners may have expert knowledge, unlike in the sole trader there is so much one person can know. There is also a rule to how many partners you can have in a partnership. I think in Britain this is maximum 15 or 29.As the partners are more in number capital investment is large.The managerial ability of a partnership firm's great,as it is provided by 2 or more talented person.
A cooperative is the kind of business where all employees have a share in the business in the business. The key difference between cooperatives and partnerships is that there is no limit to how many people you can have in the business and normally the people involved have a keen interest, such as they can be consumers who have started it to get quality products or employees to find good working practice. The way you register a cooperative business is different.
A cooperative is guided by its objects and principles
a partnership follows what the partners want to do

This means that each partner is responsible and liable for their own actions. All LLPs are different and the services they offer will depend on the sector the specific business is in.

The basic pattern of partnership is a form of voluntary association between two or more individuals who agree to cooperate to advance their collective interests. This cooperative arrangement is typically made in order to operate a business or other enterprise. It is similar to a corporation however it is structured differently and the partners are jointly and severally liable for the business. The main features of a partnership include: Partners are jointly and severally liable for the business debts and obligations. Profits and losses are shared equally among the partners. Partners have the right to participate in the management of the business. Partners may enter into contracts on behalf of the business. Partners have a fiduciary duty to act in the best interests of the business.The partnership structure can provide advantages over other forms of business organization such as limited liability tax advantages and flexibility in how the business is managed. However it also involves a higher degree of risk and personal liability since each partner is responsible for the actions of the other partners. It is important that partners have a clear understanding of the terms of their relationship such as how profits will be shared how decisions will be made and what happens if one partner wants to leave the business.
