The two correct answers that describe a realistic cause-effect relationship between solar weather and Earth's magnetosphere are:

  1. coronal mass ejection -- geomagnetic storm
  2. geomagnetic storm -- aurora

These relationships illustrate how solar events can affect Earth's magnetic environment and lead to visible phenomena such as auroras.
