Explanation
Answer: B - Leonardo da Vinci was not involved in the construction or decoration of either papal structure. Donato Bramante was responsible for the architectural design of St. Peter’s Basilica, which Michelangelo later executed. The latter also contributed to the most heralded frescoes in the Sistine Chapel, where Sandro Botticelli also did some of the paintings. Raphael created many of the frescoes in St. Peter’s- the rooms in which they hang are called the Raphael Rooms.
