Most of the Popes of the Renaissance period (1450-1600) were very 'worldly' (that is rich and immoral politicians) instead of real 'churchmen' (Adrian VI being an exception). Their policies for the most part were to.....
1. Build and take over the 'Papal States' of central Italy giving Popes an actual 'country' to be in charge of.
2. Break the power of and make war on rival 'great families' of Italy using foreign troops/ mercenaries (most of the Renaissance Popes were from rich Italian great families such as the Medici, Farnese, etc. they used their position as Pope to take out rival families such as the Orsini, Colonna etc.).
3.Being rich and used to riches they beautified Rome with art, jewels, gold, fountains, architecture.
The impact on the Church was that no one was really paying attention to running it, just using it, or paying attention to religious matters. To the truly religious the Popes behavior of the times were mostly disgusting. The 'Reformation' and Protestantism (the religious breaking away and starting their own independent Churches) started elsewhere in Europe during the period as a result.

Coral reefs can be damaged or destroyed by _____.
arlik [135]

Coral reef destruction is caused of course by climate change, responsible for our warmer oceans. Corals cannot survive if the water temperature is too high. Higher water temperatures is the main reason behind the death of nearly half of the Great Barrier Reef’s corals.


Urban and industrial waste and oil pollution from shipping are poisoning reefs too – some pollutants, such as sewage and runoff from farming increase the level of  nitrogen in seawater, causing an overgrowth of algae, which smothers reefs by cutting off their sunlight.


So A, B and C are the correct answers

What is encryption? Explain how encryption was used during both the Boer Wars and WWII and its effectiveness.
Andrew [12]
Encryption is the use of code words or other things such as a different language to transmit data that is able to be understood by only those that use it. An example was during World War II, Americans in the Pacific theater fighting against the Japanese brought Navajo speaking Native Americans to transmit data to other American forces. They did this because the Navajo language was completely unknown to the Japanese and weren't able to decipher the transmissions that they intercept.
