what effect does cascas response have on cassius?
○ cassius puts the conspiracy on hold.
○ cassius tries to get brutus to join them.
○ cassius turns casca in for conspiracy.
○ cassius ends the conspiracy altogether.

Explanation:

Casca's response shows his willingness to join the conspiracy (saying he'll go as far as others for redress). Cassius, wanting to strengthen the conspiracy, would then try to get Brutus (a respected figure) to join. The other options are incorrect: he doesn't put it on hold, turn Casca in, or end the conspiracy.

Answer:

B. Cassius tries to get Brutus to join them.
