Which concept describes events and the factors that cause or result from them?

• A. Cause and effect
• B. Informational texts
• C. Idioms
• D. Adages

Answer: (A)

Cause and effect explains events and the factors that cause or result from them. It shows how one thing leads to another and what outcomes follow from a particular action or situation. This helps readers interpret why things happen and predict what might occur next. In this question, the idea described is cause and effect, because it captures the relationship between events and the reasons or results behind them. Informational texts describe facts and details; idioms are expressions with non-literal meanings; adages are traditional sayings. Those other options don’t describe the linked relationship between causes and effects in events.
