Zorluk: ZorSentence-Level Transitions

Read the passage and answer the question that follows.

The thorny devil, a lizard native to the Australian outback, can absorb water through its skin using a network of microscopic grooves between its scales. Additionally, this moisture is transported directly to the lizard's mouth by capillary action, allowing the creature to drink simply by standing on damp sand.

Which choice provides the most logical transition from the first sentence to the second sentence?

  1. A
    NO CHANGE
  2. Through this process,Cevap
  3. C
    However,
  4. D
    Likewise,

Cevap

Through this process,
The correct answer is 'Through this process,' because the second sentence explains the biological mechanism of capillary action by which the moisture absorbed through the lizard's skin (mentioned in the first sentence) travels to its mouth. This phrase accurately establishes that the second sentence details the operational mechanism of the process described in the first sentence.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the relationship between the two sentences.
The first sentence describes a physical adaptation (microscopic grooves in the skin that absorb water). The second sentence explains the mechanics of how that absorbed water travels to the mouth (capillary action).
Understanding the logic linking the ideas is necessary to select the correct transition.
2
Determine the logical connection.
The second sentence is not a separate, additional adaptation, nor does it contrast with or compare to the first. Rather, it describes the mechanism by which the process introduced in the first sentence is completed.
Identifying the correct relationship allows us to eliminate incorrect categories of transitions.
3
Evaluate the options.
The option containing 'Through this process' correctly connects the physical mechanism to the result of the water absorption.
Selecting the option that matches the identified logical connection yields the correct answer.
