A is true

Pantheism is a belief that all reality is identical with divinity and that there is god in everything. They don't believe that god is a figure that looks like a person and rules from the sky but rather that it's like a sort of energy that is found everywhere and in everything and in everyone and connects everything.

B is False

In Hinduism there is a clear concept of a soul or of an inner self. The physical body changes but the soul keeps changing bodies through the idea of reincarnation. When the soul manages to free itself from the desires of this world it will finally be free to go to a better place and become one with everything. Some of these things are similar to concepts found in Buddhism.

C is True.

Hinduism is a polytheistic religion because they have many gods. Their religion is considered to be among some of the oldest in the world and they preserved their ideas of numerous deities and a pantheon where gods have their roles and are different. There is no universal one omnipotent god like many contemporary religions have.

D is False.

They core thing which is the Absolute or the Brahman is gender-less and impersonal. Depending on the tradition, there is either a gender-less set of gods, a clearly different male and female gods, or there are pairings where each god which is male is partnered with a female god of the same type. This depends on which tradition one follows.
