Answer 2

Answer:

C. Elizabethans had to be very careful about properly preserving and storing food.

Explanation:

The text shown in the question above shows how Elizabethan people had to be very careful when preserving and properly storing food when they were subjected to a time of poor harvests.

This is because bad harvests meant that the amount of food would be limited, until another harvest was possible. For this reason, the storage of harvested products should be done carefully and very well established. Each food should be stored correctly, preventing it from spoiling and ensuring that it lasts long enough. In this way food waste was avoided and this prevented people from being in need.
