  • A.endogamy
  • B.inter-caste marriage
  • C.marriage within same gender
  • D.marriage within blood relation

Answer: A

Endogamy is marrying within the same caste, a significant way in which caste hierarchies are maintained. Inter-caste marriage is outside the caste, and marriage within the same gender or within a blood relation are other things altogether. Endogamy is the rule of marrying within a group, such as a caste, and it keeps the boundaries of the caste intact.
