The correct statement regarding the religion of Ancient Egypt is:

A. They believed in the afterlife.

Ancient Egyptians had a profound belief in the afterlife and developed elaborate beliefs and practices surrounding death and burial to ensure a safe passage to the next world. They were not monotheistic; rather, they believed in multiple gods and goddesses. While the pharaoh was considered a divine figure and a mediator between the gods and the people, they worshiped many deities, not solely the pharaoh. The concept of karma is associated with Hinduism and is not a part of Ancient Egyptian religious beliefs.
