Question 2

____________________________________________________. One effect of chronic anger is damage to physical health. Men who engage in frequent angry outbursts are three times more likely than men who keep their anger in check to develop cardiovascular disease. One study showed that the angriest young men are six times more likely to suffer heart attacks by age 55 . Another serious effect of chronic anger is damage to relationships. Men who have a short fuse often take out their anger on their loved ones, which hurts those people and causes them to become resentful or emotionally withdrawn and sometimes even end the relationship. Yet another serious effect is a severe reduction in quality of life. When men cannot effectively manage their anger, they spend too much time feeling irritated, frustrated, and tense, leading to an overall sense of unhappiness about life. What pattern organizes the details in this paragraph?
 
  A) process
  B) cause and effect
  C) classification
