Question

Read the sentence.

The faculty was able to teach computer science classes now that the school built a new lab.

Which words could replace the subordinating conjunction in the sentence while maintaining its original structure? Choose two answers.

and
because
but
since
so

Answer 1

because
since

Both are subordinating conjunctions that indicate reason (like "now that"). "And," "but," and "so" are coordinating conjunctions and would change the sentence structure or meaning.
