The phrase '. . . . initiates a cascade of events', means :

  • A.to put a stop to orderly events
  • B.to halt and hinder sequential events
  • C.signals given to the brain
  • D.to start a series of occurrences

Answer: D

To initiate a cascade of events means to start a series of occurrences.

Initiate means to begin or set off, and a cascade, literally a waterfall, is used for a series of events in which each one triggers the next. Together the phrase means to set off a chain of events.

Stopping or halting events is the opposite of initiating them. 'Signals given to the brain' describes what the chain might lead to in a scientific context, not what the phrase itself means.
