Correct answer choice is:

A) Buddhism.

Step-by-step explanation:

As Kushan control developed, so did the expanse of Buddhism. Before the 2nd century was ended, the faith was so well-established amongst the Parthians that Chinese reports include a report concerning Parthian Buddhist missionaries.

In old times, the Japanese thought that all physical events, animals, and plants held kami or spiritual strength. This theory came to be recognized as Shinto and was built as a formal religion after Buddhism and Confucianism were transported to Japan from the Asian mainland.
