 I. All the schools in the area had to be kept closed for most part of the week. 
II. Many parents have withdrawn their children from the local schools.

• A. Statement I is the cause and statement II is its effect
• B. Statement II is the cause and statement I is its effect
• C. Both the statements I and II are independent causes
• D. Both the statements I and II are effects of independent causes
• E.

Hint:

When determining the relationship between statements, check if each is a result of different independent circumstances or if they are related to each other.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The closure of schools (Statement I) and parents withdrawing their children from the local schools (Statement II) may not be directly related. Both could be effects of different independent causes, such as external factors affecting the schools or parents' decision-making process.
