How did the Renaissance contribute to the Scientific Revolution?

Renaissance thinkers encouraged individuals to question how things work, and scientists began to test these ideas with experiments during the Scientific Revolution.

Renaissance thinkers focused little on observation of the natural world, and the Scientific Revolution was an inevitable rebellion against this practice.

Because Renaissance scientists were largely unsuccessful, the Church was forced to fund a Scientific Revolution to improve quality of life.

Because Renaissance scientists used such accurate measurements in their experiments, later scientists could drastically improve the scientific process in other areas.
