Zorluk: OrtaTransitions: Addition and Similarity

In the field of materials science, researchers have developed self-healing concrete containing bacterial spores that produce calcium carbonate to seal cracks when exposed to moisture. __________, scholars in building preservation have successfully utilized bacterial treatments to repair historical stone monuments suffering from environmental degradation.

Which transition word or phrase most logically completes the passage?

  1. A
    Conversely,
  2. B
    As a result,
  3. Likewise,Cevap
  4. D
    In addition, also,

Cevap

Likewise,
The correct option is the transition that indicates a similarity between the two statements. The first sentence describes using bacteria to repair cracks in concrete, while the second sentence describes using bacteria to repair historical stone monuments. Since both sentences illustrate similar applications of a biotechnology across different fields, the transition 'Likewise' is the most logical choice.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the relationship between the two sentences.
The first sentence explains how materials scientists use bacterial spores to repair concrete cracks. The second sentence explains how building preservationists use bacterial treatments to repair stone monuments.
Understanding the logical connection is necessary to choose the correct transition.
2
Identify the type of connection.
Both sentences describe similar methods (using bacteria for structural repair) in different fields, indicating a relationship of similarity.
This narrows down the choice to transitions that indicate similarity or analogy.
3
Evaluate the choices to find the one that best expresses similarity without redundancy.
The transition 'Likewise' correctly expresses similarity. The transition 'Conversely' indicates contrast, 'As a result' indicates cause and effect, and 'In addition, also' is redundant.
Selecting the most logical and grammatically correct option.
