C Correct answer
Explanation

Japan has one of the highest cremation rates in the world, consistently above 95% due to Buddhist cultural traditions, land scarcity, and legal requirements. The 98% figure is well-documented and reflects Japan's actual funeral practices. Lower options like 5%, 11%, or 26% contradict Japan's long-standing cremation culture.
