Choices | something visible that represents something invisible | any object of warm affection or devotion | something that is remembered | any entity that produces an effect |
Correct Answer | any entity that produces an effect |
Blurb | A cause makes an effect, and you're likely to hear the phrase "cause and effect" when people are trying to analyze how things happen. Cause can also mean something worth fighting for — like social justice or animal rights. You might raise money for a good cause, like ending poverty. Once the doctor determines the cause of your illness, she might make it her personal cause to discover a cure. The verb cause is all about the action of producing an effect, like when you slice onions and it causes your eyes to water. |
