Answer:

c. “those who pray”

Step-by-step explanation:

The medieval society was divided into three castes: those who rule and defend, the nobles, those who labor, the farmers, and those who pray, the clergy.

The clergy was led by the Catholic Pope, and it was composed by priests, monks, and missionaries, who had a great degree of power because the Catholic church had political legitimacy, and economic wealth.
