Correct Answer: C

Here's Why: This sentence asks you to recognize a cause and effect relationship: a decreasing number of trees causes antelope populations to decrease. The only option in which both terms have a logical cause and effect relationship is “felling . . decrease.”
Difficulty: Easy
Question Type: Sentence Completions
