Cause and effect worksheets: color and light

The passage likely explains how light refraction produces colors, why objects appear certain colors based on light absorption and reflection, or how prisms separate white light into a spectrum — concrete physical science content.

Science texts present physical or causal explanations (e.g., 'when light passes through water, it bends and separates into colors') rather than character decisions, requiring students to apply analytical cause-and-effect thinking to factual content.

A multi-cause/multi-effect diagram works well for science passages where one phenomenon (light entering a prism) causes multiple observable effects (color separation) — helping students map the complexity of scientific causation.
