Cause/Effect/Response

Causes

are things that have an

impact on something else

. What makes something else happen.

e.g. A cause of me being fat is me eating a lot of chocolate

e.g. A cause of a hurricane is strong winds

An

effect

is what

impact that has on something else

.

e.g. An effect of me eating a lot of chocolate is me being fat

e.g. An effect of a hurricane is that people’s homes fall apart

A

Response

is what is

done after the event

(possibly to stop it happening again)

e.g. A response to me being fat is for me to do more exercise

e.g. A response to a hurricane is to rebuild houses and improve prediction.Slide8
