The correct answer is A) The Renaissance gave rise to the protestant reforming and reduced the power of the Catholic Church.
The statement that most accurately describes the consequences of the Renaissance in Europe is "The Renaissance gave rise to the protestant reforming and reduced the power of the Catholic church."
The Protestant Reformation initiated by Martin Luther challenged the political power Catholic Church had in that time. The Pope and the Roman Catholic Church exerted a total dominion and control of people's belief systems and Reformators considered that that dominion had generated corruptive practices inside the Church. Reformation followed ideas of the Renaissance and many branches were formed such as the Anglicans, the Methodists, Calvinists, Baptists, and Lutherans.
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.
Allies allowed the Soviet Union to join them when they knew full well about Stalin's tactics because Great Britain and France really knew that they alone, could not stop Hitler's troops from invading France and then the British territory.
Winston Churchill and Charles De Gaulle knew that although Joseph Stalin was a tyrant and a dictator, he ruled over a great land with supplies and had the kind of strong men in its army that could be of great help to contain the Germans.
That is how, the three allies with the help of the United States army, could devise a plan to retake North Africa to invade through Italy (the Axis troops had occupied North Africa), invade France from Britain and Germany from the Soviet Union. Once done that, the United States Navy with the help of the Allies could attack and defeat Japan in the Pacific.
