Since it is homework I will give you links rather than answer the question. That way you can learn and form your own opinions.

Don't miss the section titled, Karma Transformation, in the Zhuan Falun Lecture available on the web.

Falun Gong is a unique Buddhist School, found in 1992 by Master Li Hongzhi in China. There are about 100 million followers, and most of them are in China. It's practiced in over 80 countries worldwide. Falun Gong is an ancient practice for the body, mind, and consists of five sets of powerful exercises.

Falun Gong, Tibetans, other Buddhists, and Christians have been persecuted in China. The most offensive human right violation is the organ harvesting from the Falun Gong practitioners in China. Can you kindly sign a petition to stop persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in China, please ?

The greatest difference among the 3 is

Jain and Hindu take karma as the nature process which cannot be avoided. One takes rebirth after rebirth as a continuous process.

But Buddha believes that through attainment of Nibbana, one can be delivered from rebirth caused by karma. Buddha taught, unless we overcome ignorance or we will suffer in the cause and effect of karma.
