Read the following passage:An increase in automobile use has led to increased demand for fuel. The extraction, processing, and delivery of fuel put harmful pollutants into the atmosphere. The fuel that is then consumed by engines creates carbon dioxide emissions. The carbon dioxide creates a greenhouse effect in the atmosphere. The gasses trap heat in Earth's atmosphere, leading to global warming.What is one way the author uses a cause-and-effect structure to support his purpose?A.By explaining the relationship between automobile emissions and global warmingB.By exploring the dangerous effects of air pollution on living thingsC.By explaining how gases trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere.D.By listing several examples of how people can get around without automobilesSUBMITarrow_backPREVIOUS

How is the following passage from a cause-and-effect essay organized?The greenhouse gas theory states that, in normal conditions, sunlight warms the earth during the day. Then, at night the earth cools down. However, over the years, gases such as carbon dioxide have been released into the atmosphere. Now, those gases trap the heat that the earth would have cast off before.by chronological ordersubject by subjectby order of importancepoint by point
