1. **Which relationship does NOT also reflect causation?**
- **Answer:** When basketball players spend more time in uniform, they score more points.
- **Reasoning:** The time spent in uniform may not directly cause players to score more points; it could simply be correlated with other factors like practice or game opportunities.
2. **Which relationship does NOT also reflect causation?**
- **Answer:** When a high school has more students, the school's town has more new shopping centers.
- **Reasoning:** The increase in students may correlate with shopping centers, but it does not imply that more students cause shopping centers to be built.
3. **Which relationship also reflects causation?**
- **Answer:** When bakers make more bread, they use more flour.
- **Reasoning:** The production of bread directly requires flour, indicating a causal relationship.
4. **A high correlation coefficient such as 0.95 always indicates causation.**
- **Answer:** **False.**
- **Reasoning:** A high correlation does not necessarily imply causation; there can be other factors or variables that influence the relationship observed.
