A) Taoism influenced individuals to follow the flow of nature rather than rely on others to solve problem.

Explanation:

Taoism otherwise written as Daosim is a philosophical tradition of Chinese origin which deals and focus on people living in harmony by doing natural things and going with the flow in accordance with the Tao (or Dao), a cosmic force which exists in all things.

Attributed to Lao Tzu around 500 BCE, Taoism is also considered as religion, that preaches that man must place his will in harmony with the natural universe.

Hence, Taoism influenced individuals to follow the flow of nature rather than rely on others to solve problems.
