[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

In many societies, a person's caste is determined by birth, meaning that someone inherits their caste status from their parents. Caste is often passed down through generations, with individuals being born into a specific caste and remaining in that caste throughout their lives. However, there are also social systems in which one's caste can change based on marriage, occupation, or other factors. This is frequently the case in more fluid caste systems or in societies where traditional caste structures are breaking down. Ultimately, the specific rules and practices that determine a person's caste status can vary widely between different cultures and societies.
