Answer:

The answer to this question is:

In Christianity the cross represents the victory of Christ over death and sin

Step-by-step explanation:

Its origin refers to the method of execution of Christ, which for Christians is a "tree of salvation." Some mystical interpretations interpret that the vertical portion represents the divinity of Jesus and the horizontal portion his humanity.
