Answer 1

cause and effect

Answer 2

The type of relationship signaled by the transition "as a result" is cause and effect.

Answer 3

The type of relationship signaled by the transition "as a result" is cause and effect. This is because the sentence indicates that Joe making the track team was a consequence of his training all summer long. This transition word connects the cause (Joe's training) to the effect (making the track team).
