Definition: The result or outcome of a cause.
Alright class, settle down and let’s take a look! You’ve got a great starting point with that dictionary definition – “The result or outcome of a cause.” Let’s break it down a little bit, shall we? “Effects,” you see, is all about what happens after something else. It's the consequence, the ripple, the change! Think of it like this: Cause: You plant a seed (that's your cause!). Effect: It grows into a beautiful flower – that’s the effect! Let's try another one - Cause : You drop a ball. Effect : It bounces down! It can be big, it can be small, it can be quick or slow. But always remember, an effect follows from something else. Does that rhyme and explanation help you understand what “effects” means? Do you have any questions about how causes lead to effects?
