    People gnerally say that Hinduism is having a direct/straight effect on the groups or societies who are practicing as it develops a social hierarchy which is based on a strict and non-broken caste system. (B)

    Explanation:

    Hindu caste system contains 4 castes. They are Brahmins, Vaishyas, Kshatriyas, Shudras. It is believed that Brahmins are originated from the head of Brahma (the creator), Kshatriyas from shoulders, Vaishyas from the lap, Shudras from feet.

    Shudras ranks the lowest and Brahmins rank the highest among all castes. This caste system was in place to distribute the works among people to create a functional society.
