I think its D

I have this question right now in my classwork

I have this exact same question and I still have no clue which one to choose from. They all make sense and apply to the question but which one's the correct one?

yes no maybe so

Renaissance contributed to the age of exploration by re-opening new trade routes in which increased the demand for foreign goods in europe. Sailor were willing to explore new lands not only to colonize but also for the wealth that awaited them. Also if they could find a direct source of a spice or gold or any other foreign good then they could get it much cheaper than what it was even after it left the country of its origin because it was passed from 1 merchant to another and by the time it got to the port of all foreign goods and the city of the biggest italian monopoly at the time, Venice, the price would have already increased 200x more than its original price.

The correct answer is B: by awakening a spirit of discovery and innovation in Europe.

During the Renaissance, a cultural and intellectual movement that spanned from the 14th to the 17th century, there was a significant shift in European attitudes towards exploration. The Renaissance marked a period of renewed interest in the intellectual and cultural achievements of ancient civilizations such as Greece and Rome. This newfound fascination led to the exploration and rediscovery of ancient geographical texts, which expanded Europeans' knowledge of the world.

Additionally, Renaissance scholars and thinkers emphasized the importance of humanism, which encouraged individual achievement and self-improvement. This philosophy fostered a belief in human potential and a desire to explore new territories and expand knowledge. The Renaissance also saw advances in science, technology, and navigation, which further fueled the spirit of exploration.

So, the Renaissance contributed to the Age of Exploration by awakening a spirit of discovery and innovation in Europe, which led to a period of unprecedented exploration and expansion of European influence around the globe.

That's partly true, but there's a better reason in there.
