Answer 1

Prince Henry of Portugal sponsored voyages of discovery. Tomatoes were unknown in Europe before European explorers visited the Americas. The Protestant Reformation had various consequences and results. The printing press helped spread Martin Luther's words. Renaissance Humanism influenced Martin Luther's actions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Prince Henry of Portugal sponsored voyages of discovery for several reasons. One reason was that he hoped to find new routes to Africa. Another reason was the inspiration of Columbus's voyages to the New World. Lastly, becoming king was not a motivation for Prince Henry.

One thing that was unknown in Europe before European explorers visited the Americas was tomatoes. Sugar and pepper were already known in Europe before the explorers visited the Americas.

Belief in predestination, the decline in literacy, and the rise of nation-states were all consequences of the Protestant Reformation.

The result of the Protestant Reformation was that it created new divisions within European society. It did not lead to better treatment of European Jews or greater cooperation between Catholics and non-Catholics.

The conflict between Catholics and Protestants was a cause of the Thirty Years' War. It was not caused by the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre or the defeat of the Spanish Armada.

The Peace of Westphalia, ending the Thirty Years' War, resulted in the rise of absolute monarchs. It did not lead to the unification of Germany or the creation of the Holy Roman Empire.

An example of absolutism under King Louis XIV was the construction of Versailles. The convening of the Inquisition and meeting of the Estates-General were not examples of absolutism under King Louis XIV.

An example of absolutism under Russia's Peter the Great was the construction of St. Petersburg. Victory over the Mongols and the time of troubles were not examples of absolutism under Peter the Great.

A dispute between the king and Parliament was a cause of the English Civil War. Rebellion in the English colonies and disagreements between Protestants and Jews were not causes of the English Civil War.

The defeat of the Spanish Armada was not a result of the English Civil War. The beheading of King Charles I and the rise of Oliver Cromwell were the results of the English Civil War.

A Bill of Rights became part of the English government and culture during the Glorious Revolution. The Commonwealth and the Magna Carta were not part of the English government and culture during the Glorious Revolution.

The line "The Ninety-Five Theses were soon printed and distributed around Europe" supports the idea that the printing press helped spread Martin Luther's words. The pope banning the work and the involvement of the Holy Roman Emperor and the German parliament are not examples of the printing press helping to spread Martin Luther's words.

Martin Luther's works showing a growing interest in secular matters is an aspect of his actions that is consistent with Renaissance Humanism.

Answer 2

2. He hoped to find routes to Africa.

8. Tomatoes

12. Decline in literacy:
During the Protestant Reformation, Calvinism popped up, whose main belief was in predestination (A is incorrect). Protestants believed people should be able to read the Bible, so literacy increased (B is correct!) The Protestant Reformation broke up the religious unity of Europe, leading to the rise of nation-states (C is incorrect).

13. It created new divisions within European society:
It destroyed the religious unity of Europe (A is correct), and led to more conflict between Catholics and non-Catholics (B is incorrect). The Jews weren't positively affected either (C is incorrect).

14. Conflict between Catholics and Protestants:
Tension between the two groups was one cause of the Thirty Years' War.

15. Rise of absolute monarchs:
I believe Germany had specific regions, and the Holy Roman Empire ended. Absolute monarchs were popular because they promised to restore order.

16. Construction of Versailles

17. Construction of St. Petersburg

18. A dispute between the king and Parliament

19. Defeat of the Spanish Armada

20. A Bill of Rights

23. The Ninety-Five Theses were soon printed and distributed around Europe:
Though I think all are true statements, this is the only one that supports the argument. "The pope banned the work, telling Catholics not to read it" would make you think that the printing press did NOT help. "Eventually the Holy Roman Emperor and the German parliament got involved" has nothing to do with the printing press.

24. Luther's self-confidence in his position shows individualism and belief in his own potential:
I'm not certain, but I think this is the closest choice.
