Answer:

The correct answer is D, <em>Cathedrals needed to accommodate the growing practice of pilgrimage to visit holy relics</em>.

Explanation:

During the 11th and 12th centuries there was an increase in the number of pilgrimage voyages in medieval Europe. Many people traveled long roads to visit cathedrals that were believed to possess holy relics, that is objects that had belonged to saints or that were saints' bodies' parts.

When they visited these places they had to be large in order to fit pilgrims and the daily services. Pilgrims would walk around the place stopping to pray in different altars and shrines to different relics or tombs.

Since different parts of Earth enter and exit daylight at different times, we need different time zones. ... Each time zone is 15 degrees of longitude wide.

Hope this helps. This is the definition my geography teacher gave me. Have a great day!
