    Question

    Two statements I and II have been given. These statements may be independent causes or effects of independent causes
    or a common cause. One of the statements maybe the effect of the other statement. Read both the statements and select
    the correct option.
    I. All undergraduate exams scheduled for tomorrow in Balasore have been cancelled by the university. New dates will be announced early next week.
    II. High winds and very heavy rains are expected in Balasore tomorrow as the cyclone makes a landfall by 3 pm.

    A.

    II is the cause and I is its possible effect

    B.

    Both I and II are effects of independent causes

    C.

    Both I and II are independent causes

    D.

    I is the cause and II is its possible effect

    Correct option is A

    Let's analyze both statements to determine the relationship:
    Statement I:
    The university has canceled all undergraduate exams scheduled for tomorrow in Balasore. New dates will be announced early next week.
    This is clearly an effect — something has caused the cancellation of exams.
    Statement II:
    High winds and very heavy rains are expected in Balasore tomorrow as the cyclone makes a landfall by 3 pm.
    This is a cause — a major weather event that could lead to disruptions like school closures or exam cancellations.
    Logical Link:
    The cyclone (II) is a likely reason for exam cancellations (I).
    Correct Answer: A. II is the cause and I is its possible effect
