which transition word is most logical in context?
a no change
b since
c then
d than

Explanation:

The sentence uses "if" to introduce a conditional clause. The correct structure for a conditional ("if...then...") requires "then" to follow. "Since" is for cause - effect (not conditional), "than" is for comparisons, and the original (implied "so" maybe, but the correct conditional pair is "if...then"). So "then" is the logical transition.

Answer:

C. then
