B. The Renaissance gave rise to the Protestant Reformation and reduced the power of the Catholic Church.
C. The Renaissance led to the Ottoman Empire sailing to the New World and conquering Central and South America.
D. The Renaissance gave rise to European feudalism and its social hierarchy.
I think it is c.
man why are you so rude?
I am glad those pesky Ottomen did not cross the Mexican border into Texas.
If an answer isn't posted on a question that is already on here. I will likely post it again. Thanks!
Well, Apparently (if not obviously) it's not B or D...
It's B
To determine the accurate answer to this question, we need to understand the consequences of the Renaissance in Europe. The Renaissance was a period of significant cultural, artistic, and intellectual development that started in Italy in the 14th century and spread throughout Europe until the 17th century. It marked a transition from the Middle Ages to the modern era.
Option A suggests that the Renaissance led to the Catholic Church having a monopoly on literacy and interpretation of the Bible. While the Church did hold significant power during the Renaissance, this option is not accurate based on the overall consequences of the period.
Option B states that the Renaissance gave rise to the Protestant Reformation and reduced the power of the Catholic Church. This option is the most accurate among the given choices. The Renaissance, with its emphasis on individualism, humanism, and critical thinking, sparked a questioning of traditional religious practices and beliefs. This ultimately led to the Protestant Reformation, initiated by Martin Luther in 1517, which challenged the doctrines and authority of the Catholic Church.
Option C suggests that the Renaissance led to the Ottoman Empire sailing to the New World and conquering Central and South America. This option is not accurate as the Ottoman Empire did not have a significant presence in the Americas, nor did they play a major role in the Renaissance.
Option D states that the Renaissance gave rise to European feudalism and its social hierarchy. This option is not accurate as the Renaissance actually saw a decline in the feudal system as society shifted towards a more urban and mercantile structure.
Therefore, the most accurate answer to the question is B. The Renaissance gave rise to the Protestant Reformation and reduced the power of the Catholic Church.
Thank goodness!
My word!! You have an imaginative teacher.
I have no idea why you think that.
Obviously? What did you learn that led you to believe that?
By the way, one of your last guesses is right.
Find out which one. But don't post this question here again.
