Question

1. the influence of the scientific revolution was reflected in which enlightenment idea?

a. justifying the rule of absolute monarchs
b. supporting traditional social differences
c. explaining the world through natural laws
d. promoting the abolition of religion

Explanation:

The Scientific Revolution emphasized using reason and empirical methods to understand the world, leading to the concept of natural laws (like Newton's laws). Enlightenment thinkers applied this to society, explaining it via natural laws. Option A: Absolute monarchs' rule was challenged, not justified. Option B: Enlightenment sought to reform social differences, not support. Option D: Enlightenment didn't aim to abolish religion, but to separate it from state or use reason in religion. So C is correct.

Answer:

C. explaining the world through natural laws
