In marine ecology, the term "kleptoplasty" describes a symbiotic phenomenon where a host organism sequesters functional chloroplasts from digested algae and uses them to perform photosynthesis. ______ the sea slug *Elysia chlorotica* feeds on the alga *Vaucheria litorea* and is subsequently able to survive for months solely on the energy produced by these stolen organelles.

Which choice completes the passage with the most logical transition?

  1. A
    Consequently,
  2. In fact,Cevap
  3. C
    Nevertheless,
  4. D
    Furthermore,

Cevap

The transition 'In fact' logically connects the general definition of kleptoplasty to the specific example of the sea slug *Elysia chlorotica*.
The transition 'In fact' logically connects the two sentences. The first sentence defines the general biological phenomenon of kleptoplasty, in which an organism captures and uses chloroplasts from algae. The second sentence provides a specific example of this process in action: the sea slug *Elysia chlorotica* feeding on alga and utilizing its chloroplasts to survive. 'In fact' is used to introduce an elaboration or specific instance of a previously stated concept, making it the most logical fit.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the relationship between the two sentences.
The first sentence defines the general concept of kleptoplasty, and the second sentence provides a specific example (*Elysia chlorotica*) of this phenomenon.
Understanding the logical connection between the ideas is essential for choosing the correct transition.
2
Determine the type of transition required.
Since the second sentence exemplifies or elaborates on the first, a transition of elaboration or exemplification is needed.
The correct transition must reflect this continuous, illustrative relationship.
3
Evaluate the choices against the required transition type.
'In fact' is the only option that functions as an elaboration or exemplification transition.
Other options introduce incorrect logical relationships such as cause-and-effect, contrast, or simple addition.
