What were the responsibilities of peasants in the feudal system?
Elodia [21]
Peasants grew the crops and tended the livestock. They generally rented strips of land from th elrod of the manor, and paid rent in in the form of labour on the lord's own farm (demesne). Peasants made money by selling their surplus produce. In time, this labour rent was replaced by cash rent, which was more convenient for both lord and peasant. some peasants worked as paid labor on the lord's demesne, or sometimes poor peasants with little or no land of their own worked for wealthier peasants as servants or laborers.

Explanation:

✨After the battle, Jackson was accidentally shot in the arm by some of his own men while he was making a reconnaissance.

The loss of Jackson was a devastating blow to the Confederate forces.✨

During the scientific revolution what belief did that Catholic Church support
mixer [17]
The belief that the Earth was the center of the universe, but in reality, the Church always supported the belief that God is the center of the universe, and man was His primary creation on the earth. Thus any scientific discovery had to be consistent with Christianity, as God is One, and certainly logical.
