Question

Read the passage:

"The theory of relativity proposed by Einstein changed the way we perceive space and time. As a result, scientists started to conduct experiments to verify the predictions of the theory. Over time, many of these predictions were proven correct. Meanwhile, the theory also had a profound impact on the development of modern physics. It led to new discoveries and the formulation of other important theories."

What is the main issue with the coherence of this passage?

Options

"As a result" is used incorrectly as there is no clear cause - effect relationship between the theory and the experiments.

"Meanwhile" is misused as it does not accurately represent the relationship between the verification of predictions and the impact on modern physics.

The passage does not provide enough details about the experiments conducted to verify the theory.

The passage should have started with the impact on modern physics first and then moved to the verification of predictions.
