Answer:

E) the superiority of the Portuguese navy over English and Dutch forces.

Explanation:

In the early 16th century, two countries of Europe had ventured far away to try to find new trade routes to India and Asia: Spain and Portugal. Without knowing it, Spain had discovered for Europe a new continent, and Portuguese sailors managed to circumnavigate Africa. English and Dutch maritime expeditions with trade purposes took place at a later time.

How were monks and friars similar?
Crank
<span>A monk is a person who practices religious asceticism, living either in solitude or among other monks. A monk can either devote his life completely to other beings or lives his life through prayer and contemplation, but lives in mainstream society. A friar is a type of monk who is of the Christian order, who depends on charity for a living. A friar and a monk can be similar, because monks can be like friars who depend on charity for living but since some monks live in the mainstream society, who rely more on praying than actively living in a convent, this is how monks and friars differ.
