In the seventeenth century, physicians and other scientists did not routinely perform autopsies. which statement best illustrates the cause and effect? physicians did not have the tools to do autopsies; therefore, they were not able to practice their surgical skills on the dead. at this time, it was considered culturally unacceptable to deface the dead; therefore, physicians did not know much about internal anatomy. physicians were not curious about the inside of the human body; therefore, they did not investigate after death. at this time, disease was rampant; therefore, physicians were hesitant to cut into the dead for fear of catching the disease that killed the person.

The correct statement which best illustrates the cause and effect is:

“At this time, it was considered culturally unacceptable to deface the dead; therefore, physicians did not know much about internal anatomy.”

Due to tradition and religious belief, and moral reasons, it was considered to be a sin to do experimentations with the dead. And because of that, there were only few knowledge about internal organs and internal diseases back then. 

i am pretty sure it is d.

hygrometers and hair thermometers (often found as part of hygrometers/psychrometers) can be used to measure humidity. barometers are used to measure atmospheric pressure, while anemometers are used to measure wind speed. so the 2nd and 4th choices should be the correct answers.
