Answer 1

The most accurate statement regarding the social contribution of the Moors to Spanish society prior to 1450 is:

Islamic scholars made advances in medicine, science, and technology and preserved knowledge from the Greeks and Romans.

During the period of Muslim rule in Spain, particularly in regions such as Al-Andalus, Islamic scholars made significant contributions in various fields, including mathematics, astronomy, medicine, philosophy, and agriculture. They not only preserved and translated ancient Greek and Roman texts but also expanded upon that knowledge, influencing European thought and education during the Middle Ages. This cultural and intellectual exchange laid important groundwork for the European Renaissance.
