Select the correct text in the passage. Which two sentences in the passage contain signal words that indicate a cause and effect relationship? Deforestation occurs as trees are removed in the Amazon rainforest. There are many reasons for removing trees, including farming, housing, and cattle herding. Unfortunately, this can lead to the loss of homes for animals that live in trees, such as jaguars, howler monkeys, and sloths. The animals cannot survive in a forest without trees. As a result of deforestation, the soil will wear down and wash away, which can lead to flooding and problems for farmers. The trees keep nutrients in the soil and help hold water in the ground.
