1. The difference between fornication and adultery is: p. 406

Explanation

The correct answer is fornication is sexual intercourse between unmarried persons. This is because the definition of fornication specifically refers to sexual activity between individuals who are not married. Adultery, on the other hand, involves sexual activity between a married person and someone who is not their spouse. The other options mentioned in the question, such as the marital status of the individuals or the same-sex aspect, are not relevant to the definition of fornication.
