Explanation

The correct answer is B. Statement II is the cause, and statement I is its effect. The students' protests against high fees last year likely influenced the government's decision to reduce fees this year. Option A is incorrect because the initiative to reduce fees could not have caused last year's protests. Option C is incorrect, as both statements are not independent causes; they are connected. Option D is incorrect because the statements are not effects of different causes; they are related. Option E is incorrect because there is no indication of a common cause for both statements beyond the protest influencing the fee reduction.

About Fundamental Principles of Organic Chemistry

Organic chemistry begins with carbon compounds classified by carbon skeleton, saturation and functional group. Work includes identifying groups such as hydroxyl, carbonyl, carboxyl and amino, applying basic nomenclature, and distinguishing structural, geometric and optical isomers, where the same molecular formula does not necessarily mean the same structure or properties.
