Explanation / Answer

The correct answer is :b

Explanation : The medieval period is also called the middle ages. It extends from 5th century (fall of the Roman Empire) to the 16th century (Renaissance period). It was the period when philosophy(the study of fundamental nature of existence, reality and knowledge) and theology(study of nature of God and other religious beliefs) were deeply interconnected and most of the philosophy was theological. Thus philosophy was used in the service of theology.
