which transitions show the correct relationships?

global warming and its causes

global warming is a result of an increase in greenhouse gases. greenhouse gases are released into the atmosphere as a result of deforestation and combustion of fossil fuels.

deforestation is a major contributor to global warming. forests help to maintain the levels of oxygen in the air that make it possible for us to survive. although, there has been a surge in the levels of carbon dioxide in the air due to the depletion of vast stretches of forests. choose an answer, other factors, such as the release of cfcs from refrigerators and pollutants from industries into the atmosphere, are also responsible for global warming.

Analyze the first drop-down menu

The sentence is: "Greenhouse gases are released into the atmosphere [as a result of] deforestation and combustion of fossil fuels."
The selected transition "as a result of" correctly shows the cause-and-effect relationship between human activities (deforestation, combustion) and the release of gases.

Analyze the second and third drop-down menus

The sentence is: "Forests help to maintain the levels of oxygen in the air that make it possible for us to survive. [Although] there has been a surge in the levels of carbon dioxide in the air [due to] the depletion of vast stretches of forests."
The contrast transition "Although" introduces the counter-condition, and "due to" correctly attributes the cause of the carbon dioxide surge to forest depletion.

Analyze the fourth drop-down menu

The sentence is: "[Choose an answer], other factors, such as the release of CFCs from refrigerators and pollutants from industries into the atmosphere, are also responsible for global warming."
The drop-down options visible are: "Ordinarily", "Since", "Similarly", "While".
The sentence introduces additional, parallel causes of global warming (CFCs and industrial pollutants) alongside deforestation. Therefore, the transition "Similarly" is the correct choice to connect these comparable factors.
