A. The consumer demand for synthetic diamonds consumer demand for synthetic diamonds could affect the amount of research funding for diamond synthesis amount of research funding for diamond synthesis, so E and F are dependent.

B. The amount of research funding for diamond synthesis amount of research funding for diamond synthesis could affect the consumer demand for synthetic diamondsconsumer demand for synthetic diamonds, so E and F are dependent.

C. The consumer demand for synthetic diamonds consumer demand for synthetic diamonds could not affect the amount of research funding for diamond synthesis amount of research funding for diamond synthesis, so E and F are independent.

E: The consumer demand for synthetic diamonds consumer demand for synthetic diamonds.
F: The amount of research funding for diamond synthesis amount of research funding for diamond synthesis.

Explanation / Answer

A is CORRECT. please read below for explanations:

E: The consumer demand for synthetic diamonds .
F: The amount of research funding for diamond synthesis

A. The consumer demand for synthetic diamonds could affect the amount of research funding for diamond synthesis , so E and F are dependent.

Possible, if there is more demand for synthetic diamond then we need more research on quicker and efficient ways to manufacture synthetic diamond. In this case E and F are dependent. Hence, A is correct

B. The amount of research funding for diamond synthesis could affect the consumer demand for synthetic diamonds , so E and F are dependent.

False. There is no reason as to why more research funding amount will lead to more demand. Hence, this is not possible reason why E and F can be dependent or independent

C. The consumer demand for synthetic diamonds could not affect the amount of research funding for diamond synthesis , so E and F are independent.

False , it effects and that' why E and F can't be independent
