What is a phrase commonly used to signal a connection between a premise and a conclusion?

1. Follows that

2. Consequently

3. As a result

4. Clearly

The correct answer is: Follows that

The phrase "Follows that" is commonly used to signal a connection between a premise and a conclusion. It indicates that the conclusion logically follows from the premise provided. This phrase is often used in formal logic and argumentation to show that the conclusion can be inferred or deduced from the information presented in the premise. The other options may sometimes indicate a connection between ideas, but they do not specifically signal the relationship between a premise and a conclusion as explicitly as the phrase "Follows that" does.
