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
