aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Cause and Effect text structure

Explanation:

The cause and effect text structure tells the reader that a certain effect or result stems from a foregoing event.

To clearly project the idea, words like because, as a result, and consequently can be used.

Other examples of text structures include; Time order/chronology, compare-contrast structure, sequence structure, definition structure, events description structure, etc.
