What type of relationship is described by the term "because of"?

  1. Causal term

  2. Correlative term

  3. Conditional term

  4. Contradictory term

The correct answer is: Causal term

The term "because of" indicates a cause-and-effect relationship, making it a causal term. This term implies that one event or action leads to another, showing a direct cause-and-effect connection. This demonstrates the reason why option A is the correct choice. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the relationship implied by the term "because of." Correlative terms establish a relationship of association or connection, conditional terms indicate a contingent relationship, and contradictory terms indicate a relationship of opposition or inconsistency.
