Is there any term by the name 'consultation' in UML? If yes please explain or point to some resource.

(Am writing the the paragraph below because may be you know it by some other name.)

From the very limited knowledge that I have is that it is related to 'delegation'. My guess is that in delegation you transfer the task as it is to another object but in consultation perhaps the consulted object performs a part of the task.

A: 

See the Wikipedia article on Consultation. This also explains the differences between that and delegation.

That Wikipedia article contains no citation to justify the claim.
