JUSMINE ELLAINE DE VERA · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : B, Explanation :  Sects are religious organizations that often withdraw from society and follow strict rules and practices, which may include dress codes, dietary restrictions, specific forms of prayer, and limitations on interaction with outsiders. Sects may also seek to distance themselves from mainstream religious institutions and may have a charismatic leader who is seen as having special authority or knowledge. Examples of sects include the Amish, Haredi Jews, and various Christian groups such as the Jehovah's Witnesses and Seventh-day Adventists. Cults and denominations can also have strict rules and practices, but sects are characterized by their separatist stance and emphasis on strict adherence to specific beliefs and practices.
