One cause- all because of forgetting to set the alarm clock. Thus, many effects.

Answer 2

Answer: The type of causal relationship that is shown in this sentence is one cause and many effects.

Explanation: A causal relationship between two or more events exists when one or more of these events cause or produce others which are known as the effects. The sentence provided, for instance, presents only one cause and many effects. The cause is that Julio forgot to set his alarm clock, while the effects, which are three, are that he missed the bus, that he arrived late for school and that he missed the math test. What indicates that these three events are the effects is the conjunction "so", which signals a result.
