Zorluk: OrtaTransitions: Addition and Similarity

In molecular biology, researchers have observed that octopuses frequently edit their own RNA to adapt to colder water temperatures, a process that allows them to customize protein function without altering their underlying DNA. ________, other cephalopods, such as squids and cuttlefish, utilize this same genetic mechanism to maintain nervous system activity in response to seasonal environmental shifts.

Which choice completes the passage with the most logical transition?

  1. Similarly,Cevap
  2. B
    Conversely,
  3. C
    Consequently,
  4. D
    In addition to,

Cevap

The transition 'Similarly' correctly completes the passage because it establishes an analogous connection between the adaptation mechanism of octopuses and that of other cephalopods.
The transition 'Similarly' correctly indicates that the second sentence describes a situation analogous to the first: both discuss how cephalopods utilize RNA editing to adapt to environmental changes.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the relationship between the first and second sentences.
The first sentence introduces a genetic editing mechanism used by octopuses to adapt to temperature changes, while the second sentence notes that other cephalopods (squids and cuttlefish) use the same mechanism for environmental shifts. This indicates a relationship of similarity.
Identifying the logical connection between the sentences is necessary to choose the correct transition category.
2
Evaluate the answer choices based on the identified relationship.
The word 'Similarly' is the only option that establishes a relationship of similarity. 'Conversely' indicates contrast, 'Consequently' indicates cause and effect, and 'In addition to' is grammatically incorrect in this context.
Eliminating incorrect relationship types ensures the selected transition is logically and structurally sound.
