D. Justinian's Code of laws was developed from and replaced Roman law.

The correct answer is C. An example of how the Byzantine Empire was both a continuation and departure from the old Roman Empire was the Great Schism, that divided the religious leaders of Rome and the Byzantine Empire.

Explanation:

The Great Schism of 1054 refers to the events that separated Eastern orthodoxy from Western Catholicism in 1054. The two parts had for a long time drifted apart linguistically, politically and geographically.  

The linguistic, political, and geographical differences were related to the division of the Roman Empire in 395. In the Roman Empire, the emperor and political power moved from Rome to Constantinople; this also led to changes in the spiritual climate of the kingdom. Tradition had hitherto offered that the emperor would have authority in both worldly and spiritual matters. Those who strongly adhered to this principle came to be on the orthodox side of the conflict, while those who clung to the bishop of Rome (the Pope), who has always been the foremost ecclesiastical potentate, came to be on the Catholic side in the conflict.

Thus, this religious schism demonstrated that, while the Byzantine Empire was the legal continuation of the Roman Empire, in cultural and political terms it was a very different entity from that of the predecessor empire.
