The correct answer is **A. Shinto followers worship several gods.**
Shinto is a polytheistic religion that involves the worship of kami (spirits or gods), while Japanese Buddhism generally centers around the teachings of the Buddha and does not emphasize the worship of multiple deities in the same way. The other options do not accurately reflect the differences between Shinto and Japanese Buddhism.
