Answer:

The correct answer is - b. ​Fundamentalists.

Step-by-step explanation:

The term fundamentalists refer to individuals who share a very strong attachment to a specific religion or other beliefs and insist on strict literalism when it comes to respective dogmas. It means that fundamentalist insists on the following exactly what is set in the religious text, such as the Bible or Quran.

Such people also characterized by strong othering, when they heavily identify with members of their own religious group (for example, Jews) as opposing to the members of other groups.

Fundamentalism as a term has often a negative connotation.
