Solution

The correct option is A Division between religious sects
Martin Luther rejected the teachings of the Catholic church. In the year 1517, he expressed his opposition against the church for selling the confession letters also known as indulgences. Since Martin Luther protested against the evil practices of the church, the Reformation came to be known as the Protestant Reformation and his followers came to be known as Protestants.
