effect
the berber people lived in caves.

desert land with soft rocks that can be carved
stone with natural holes the size of houses
heavy rains that flood above ground homes
animals that use trees and grass as shelter

Explanation:

To determine the cause for the Berber people living in caves, we analyze each option:

• "desert land with soft rocks that can be carved": Soft, carvable desert rocks align with cave - dwelling (carved caves).
• "stone with natural holes the size of houses": Natural stone holes are less likely a main cause for Berber cave - living compared to carvable desert terrain.
• "heavy rains that flood above - ground homes": Berber regions (e.g., North African deserts) have arid climates, not heavy rains, so this is irrelevant.
• "animals that use trees and grass as shelter": Animal shelter habits don't relate to Berber building design.

The desert land with soft, carvable rocks explains why they could carve caves for living, fitting the cause - effect of their environment on building design.

Answer:

desert land with soft rocks that can be carved
