LSAT Practice Test

If one factor is described as "reason for" another, what type of relationship is being highlighted?

1. Causal term

2. Product of

3. Responsible for

4. Reason for

The correct answer is: Reason for

When one factor is described as the "reason for" another, the relationship being highlighted is a reason or explanation implied relationship. In this context, the term "reason for" indicates a cause and effect type of relationship where one factor directly leads to or explains the existence or occurrence of another factor. Therefore, the correct choice is D. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not specifically highlight the cause and effect relationship implied by the phrase "reason for."
