B Correct answer
Explanation

A monastery is the residence and workplace of monks - a community of people who have taken religious vows and live apart from society. While the option is misspelled as 'Monastry' (should be 'Monastery'), this is the correct answer. Mosques are for Islamic prayer, temples are for Hindu/Buddhist/Jain worship, and chapels are Christian places of worship - none are specifically homes for monks.

AI explanation

A monastery is the dedicated residence of a community of monks (or nuns) who live together under a shared religious rule, typically including living quarters, a chapel, and communal work areas. A mosque and temple are places of worship for other faiths (Islam and Hinduism/Buddhism generally), and a chapel is simply a smaller place of worship, not a residential community.
