The passage below describes how different plant species navigate their environments using sensory cues. Which transition word or phrase best completes the passage to establish a relationship of similarity?
Cevap:In plant biology, the phenomenon of thigmotropism describes how climbing vines use tactile feedback to wrap around external structures for support. 【Similarly】, some species of parasitic plants utilize chemotropism to detect chemical gradients emitted by host plants, directing their growth toward a viable source of nutrients.
Cevap
Similarly (or Likewise / Correspondingly / By the same token)
The correct transition must establish a relationship of similarity between the two plant adaptations discussed. The first sentence describes how climbing vines use thigmotropism (tactile feedback) to guide their growth around structures. The second sentence describes how parasitic plants use chemotropism (chemical gradients) to direct their growth toward host plants. Since these represent two analogous sensory growth mechanisms in plants, a transition indicating similarity (such as 'similarly' or 'likewise') is appropriate.
