Answered Which of the following statement is for why the catholic church did not begin the counter reformation until after 1550?

The Catholic Church was delayed to react deliberately to the religious and exposure advancements of Luther and different reformers. The Committee of Trent, which met now and again from 1545 through 1563, explained the Congregation's response to the issues that set off the Transformation and to the reformers themselves.

Explanation:

Counter Reformation, additionally called Catholic Reformation or Catholic Revival, throughout the entire existence of Christianity, the Roman Catholic endeavors coordinated in the sixteenth and mid seventeenth hundreds of years both against the Protestant Transformation and toward interior reestablishment.

There was minimal critical ecclesiastical response to the Protestants or to requests for change from inside the Roman Catholic Church before mid-century. Pope Paul III (ruled 1534–49) is viewed as the principal pope of the Counter Renewal. It was he who in 1545 assembled the Committee of Trent. The committee, which met discontinuously until 1563, reacted determinedly to the current issues.
