Question

sequence keywords:
first then finally during
next before after meanwhile
why ismeanwhile considered a sequence word?
\meanwhile\ explains the reason an event occurs.
\meanwhile\ means two events are happening at the same time.
\meanwhile\ highlights similarities between two events.

Explanation:

Sequence words indicate the timing or order of events. "Meanwhile" specifically signals that two events occur simultaneously, which relates to the temporal sequence of actions. The other options are incorrect: it does not explain reasons (that’s causal) or highlight similarities (that’s comparative).

Answer:

"Meanwhile" means two events are happening at the same time.
