The varieties of English exhibit significant phonological differences influenced by historical, regional, and cultural factors. These differences affect the pronunciation of specific sounds, rhythm, and intonation patterns.
Consider the following phonological characteristics and analyze the alternatives to identify the only CORRECT statement regarding the differences between British English (Received Pronunciation), American English (General American), and Australian English:

a) In British English (RP), the vowel sound in words like "bath" and "dance" is identical to American English, reflecting the global standardization of pronunciation.
b) Australian English features consistently rhotic pronunciation, where the final and post-vocalic "r" is always audible, similar to American English.
c) British and Australian English share exactly the same rhythm and intonation patterns, differing only from American English.
d) American English tends to use the "flap t" sound (as in "water," pronounced similarly to "wader"), whereas this feature is absent in British English.
e) In American English, the vowels in words like "cot" and "caught" are pronounced distinctly in all regions of the United States, with no exceptions.
