Explicação
## Step 1The question is asking us to identify the period that was directly influenced by technological advances in navigation, naval engineering, and mapmaking during the 1500s. ## Step 2We need to consider each option and determine which one is most likely to be the correct answer. ## Step 3Option A, the Gupta Empire, was an Indian empire that existed from 320 to 550 CE, which is not the correct time period. ## Step 4Option B, the Mongol Empire, was a high point in the history of empires, but it existed from 1206 to 1368, which is also not the correct time period. ## Step 5Option C, the Age of Exploration, was a period from the early 15th century and continuing into the early 17th century during which European ships were traveled around the world to search for new trading routes and potential lands to colonize. This period is known for its technological advances in navigation, naval engineering, and mapmaking, which aligns with the time period given in the question. ## Step 6Option D, the medieval guilds, were associations of artisans or merchants who controlled the practice of their craft in a particular area. This is not related to the technological advances in navigation, naval engineering, and mapmaking.
