Correct  B. Greek is the official language of the Eastern Orthodox Church. Latin is the official language of the Roman Catholic Church.

Explanation:

Answer A is incorrect because both churches accept both the Old and New Testaments.Answer C is incorrect because filioque was added to the creed in the Roman Catholic Church and was rejected in the East.  The East objected to the addition of the Latin word "filioque" (meaning "and the Son") to the Nicene Creed, in which churches in the West confessed that the Holy Spirit proceeded from the Father and the Son (rather than from the Father alone, as confessed in the East).Answer D is incorrect because the Virgin Mary is highly venerated in the Roman Catholic Church.  The Catechism of the Catholic Church (paragraph 969) says of Mary:  "The Blessed Virgin is invoked in the Church under the titles of Advocate, Helper, Benefactress, and Mediatrix."
