Question

which of the following describes a major contribution of european universities to the scientific revolution?
a. providing both men and women with equal opportunities for a good education
b. promoting the catholic church by offering medical care to sick christians
c. allowing scholars to study topics other than those supported by the catholic church
d. unifying europe by creating a single standard for education in all kingdoms

Explanation:

During the Scientific Revolution, the Catholic Church had strict - control over what could be studied. European universities' allowing scholars to explore non - Church - supported topics was crucial for the development of new scientific ideas. Women did not have equal educational opportunities at that time. Offering medical care to promote the Church is not related to the Scientific Revolution's essence. Creating a single education standard did not contribute directly to the Scientific Revolution.

Answer:

C. Allowing scholars to study topics other than those supported by the Catholic Church
