The difference between a Supreme Court opinion and a Supreme Court dissent is:
B. An opinion is a Supreme Court decision that the majority of the judges agree with, while a dissent disagrees with the decision.
Explanation:
As we know, the Supreme Court is composed of nine justices. The decision most of the justices agree with is called an opinion. If one or more justices disagree with the opinion of the majority, we have a dissenting opinion or dissent. It is important to understand that they do not have to disagree with the opinion entirely, that is, they can disagree with only certain parts of the opinion.
