Solution

The correct option is C A desire for monarch to centralise power
The sale of indulgences was started by Pope Leo X in order to construct the St.Peter's church. He issued pardon certificates to those who gave money to build the church. The people were deceived by him. Pope's interference in the political affairs was naturally resented by the kings. They strongly supported the Reformation Movement in order to weaken the church. John Wycliffe, an English priest laid emphasis on the Bible as the sole guide for salvation.
