Solution

The correct option is D Hinduism
Buddhism arose in northeastern India sometime between the late 6th century and the early 4th century BCE. At that time, there was major discontent with Brahmanic (Hindu high-caste) sacrifice and ritual. Buddhism is a religion that encompasses a variety of traditions, beliefs and spiritual practices largely based on original teachings of the Buddha.
