Question:
What are the examples of the differentiating rules in the caste system?
Options:
Endogamy
rules about food and food-sharing
Social Interaction
All of the above
Correct Answer:
All of the above
Explanation:
Each caste is supposed to be different from – and is therefore strictly separated from – every other caste. Many of the scriptural rules of caste are thus designed to prevent the mixing of castes – rules ranging from marriage, food sharing and social interaction to occupation.
