Zorluk: KolayTransitions: Addition and Similarity

Complete the passage with the transition word or phrase that best transitions by indicating a similarity.

Cevap:A botanist noted that the Venus flytrap captures prey using leaves that snap shut when sensitive hairs are touched. 【similarly】, the bladderwort plant uses tiny underwater traps that quickly suck in prey when external bristles are brushed.

Cevap

Similarly (or Likewise)
The passage describes two different carnivorous plants that capture prey using touch-sensitive mechanisms. The Venus flytrap uses leaves that snap shut when sensitive hairs are touched, and the bladderwort uses underwater traps that suck in prey when bristles are brushed. Because these two processes are analogous, a transition word indicating similarity (such as 'similarly' or 'likewise') is required to connect the two ideas.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the relationship between the two sentences in the passage.
The first sentence describes how the Venus flytrap uses a touch-sensitive mechanism to capture prey, while the second sentence describes how the bladderwort plant uses a touch-sensitive mechanism to capture prey.
To determine the logical connection that the transition word must establish.
2
Identify the logical category of the transition needed.
Because both sentences describe analogous prey-capturing mechanisms in different carnivorous plants, a transition showing similarity or comparison is required.
To narrow down the correct transition words that express similarity.
3
Choose an appropriate similarity transition word.
Transition words such as 'Similarly' or 'Likewise' fit the context perfectly.
To fill the blank with a transition that correctly connects the two parallel ideas.
