The correct answer is C. Renaissance architecture was more likely to feature Roman-style columns.

Explanation:

The Renaissance was a period after the Middle Ages (15th century) that broke with most of the traditions during the Middle Ages and instead focused on the individual which was known as humanism and the values and style fo the Classical Antiquity especially in art, literature, and music. This implies during the Renaissance literature, architecture and other elements from Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome.

In the case of architecture, this was used in terms of elements such as columns and decorations that resemble those of the classical antiquity and that did not longer celebrate the Catholic religion or Church as in the Middle Ages. Considering this, it can be concluded the statement that shows the difference the Renaissance architecture had in reference to the one of the Medieval Period is that the Renaissance architecture was more likely to feature Roman-style columns, because this period aimed at restoring certain values and styles of the Classical Antiquity.
