Answer:

D. The Mahayana school accepted the divinity of both the Buddha and the bodhisattvas, while the Hinayana school accepted only the divinity of the Buddha.

Explanation:

Hinayana (lesser vehicle) and Mahayana (greater vehicle) are two schools of Buddhism that originated after the death of Buddha. Hinayana follows the original teachings of Buddhism more closely. It also emphasizes self-discipline and meditation, and only accepts the divinity of the Buddha. Mahayana, on the other hand, believes in the divinity of both the Buddha and the bodhisattvas. Mahayana also believes in mantras and the liberation from suffering for all living beings.

Qin (221 BC to 206 BC) - The beginning of the Chinese Empire, Shi Huangdi became the first Chinese Emperor. Although this was a short dynasty much was accomplished including the beginning of the Great Wall; standards were set for weights, measures, and money; many roads and canals were built; and a single type of writing was used throughout the country. All of these advancements would be used in future dynasties to make China strong.
