Explanation:

Question 11

The dumping of tea (Samuel Adams and raiders' action) is an event that happened, and the British tax on tea (question 12) is a cause for this action. So this action is an effect of the tax? Wait, no—wait, the Boston Tea Party (dumping tea) was a response to the British tea tax. Wait, no, the question is whether "Samuel Adams and raiders dump 342 chests of tea into water" is a cause or effect. The British tax (question 12) is a cause, and the dumping is an effect? Wait, no, maybe I got it wrong. Wait, the Boston Tea Party: the cause was the British tea tax, and the effect of the Boston Tea Party was the British closing the port (question 13). Wait, question 11: the action of dumping tea—what's its role? Let's think. The British created a tea tax (cause, question 12: A). Then the colonists dumped tea (effect of the tax, so question 11: B? Wait, no, maybe I messed up. Wait, the options are A. Cause, B. Effects. Wait, the Boston Tea Party (dumping tea) was an event, and then the British closed the port (question 13) as an effect of the Boston Tea Party. So the dumping (question 11) is a cause for the British closing the port? No, the dumping is an event, and the British closing the port is an effect of the dumping. Wait, no, the sequence: British tax on tea (cause) → Boston Tea Party (effect of the tax, so question 11: B? Wait, no, maybe the question is about the Boston Tea Party's own cause and effect. Wait, the question is: "Samuel Adams and raiders dump 342 chests of tea into water" — is this a cause or effect? The cause would be the British tea tax, so this action is an effect of the tax. So question 11: B? Wait, no, maybe I'm wrong. Let's re-express:

• Cause: something that leads to an event.
• Effect: something that happens because of a cause.

British tea tax (cause) → Boston Tea Party (effect of the tax) → British close port (effect of the Boston Tea Party). So question 11: the dumping is an effect (B)? Wait, no, maybe the question is part of a sequence where the dumping is a cause for the port closing. Wait, question 13 is "King George III ordered British navy to close port of Boston & troops occupy Boston" — that's an effect of the Boston Tea Party. So the Boston Tea Party (dumping) is a cause for the port closing. But question 11 is asking if the dumping is a cause or effect. Wait, maybe the question is about the Boston Tea Party's own cause and effect. Wait, the British tea tax (question 12) is a cause (A), so the dumping (question 11) is an effect (B)? No, that doesn't make sense. Wait, maybe the question is: the dumping is an event, and we need to see if it's a cause or effect in the context. Let's check the options again. Question 11: "Samuel Adams and raiders dump 342 chests of tea into water" — options A. Cause, B. Effects. The cause of this action is the British tea tax (question 12: A). So this action is an effect of the tax, so question 11: B? Wait, no, maybe the question is reversed. Wait, maybe the Boston Tea Party (dumping) is a cause for the British to close the port (question 13: B). So the dumping (question 11) is a cause (A) for the port closing? But the question is not about the port closing, it's about the dumping itself. Wait, maybe the question is: is the dumping a cause or effect of the Boston Tea Party? No, the dumping is the Boston Tea Party. Wait, maybe the question is part of a worksheet where "Boston Tea Party" is the topic, and the questions are about causes and effects of the Boston Tea Party. So:

• Cause of Boston Tea Party: British tea tax (question 12: A).
• Effect of Boston Tea Party: British…

The British creating an import tax on tea is a cause for the Boston Tea Party (the dumping of tea). So this is a cause (A).

King George III ordering the port closed and troops to occupy Boston is an effect of the Boston Tea Party (the dumping of tea). So this is an effect (B).

Answer:

B. Effects
