Jira Admin vs Project Admin

Question

Is there something that Project Administrator can do, but Jira Administrator can not do on the project?

If you have a restriction in transition an issue to a certain project role/group where Jira Admin is not part of that project role/group, the Jira Admin will not be able to do transition that has this kind of restriction.

Not really, any time a question was written and questioned as to whether it might be wrong, we reverted to the documentation.  Whilst the bulk of the questions were written for 6.4 and 7, Atlassian do try to update them, and use the "when in doubt, we need to point at a public doc".

But, the original answer remains fundamentally correct.  Everything a project admin can do, a Jira admin can do.  Although they may have to add themselves to the right permissions first.

Thank you for the answer once again! I am aware of the things you have stated, that is why I didn't know the answer to the question and was hoping to find out something I was not aware of before.  However I am pretty sure it was the question in my exam, and only possible solution was asking as I am unable to find anything that could satisfy the question. Could it be a mistake???
