    Correct Answer
    C. An Internally Displaced Person
    Explanation
    An internally displaced person refers to someone who has been forced to flee their home due to conflict, violence, or natural disasters, but remains within the borders of their own country. Unlike refugees, internally displaced persons have not crossed an international border and are not protected by international refugee laws. They often face similar challenges and vulnerabilities as refugees, including limited access to basic necessities and protection, but their legal status and rights may differ.

This can be attributed to various factors such as conflicts and persecution that disproportionately affect these vulnerable groups. Women and children often face higher risks and are more likely to be displaced from their homes, seeking safety and refuge in other countries.
