Zorluk: KolayTransitions: Cause and Effect

Many desert plants have developed waxy outer coatings on their leaves to prevent water loss in arid environments. This protective layer significantly reduces transpiration, the process by which water evaporates from plant tissues. ________, these plants are able to survive prolonged droughts that would otherwise wither species lacking such specialized adaptations.

Which choice completes the text with the most logical transition?

  1. A
    Additionally
  2. As a resultCevap
  3. C
    Conversely
  4. D
    Previously

Cevap

As a result
The correct answer is the option that states 'As a result' because it establishes the logical cause-and-effect relationship between the reduction of transpiration (the cause) and the ability of desert plants to survive droughts (the effect).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the relationship between the two sentences.
The first sentence explains that a waxy coating reduces water loss in desert plants. The second sentence states that these plants can survive droughts. This is a cause-and-effect relationship.
Understanding the logical connection between the ideas is necessary to select the correct transition.
2
Evaluate the choices to find a transition that indicates cause and effect.
The phrase 'As a result' indicates a cause-and-effect relationship and logically connects the two sentences.
Only one option must correctly express the cause-and-effect relationship.
