Answer:

It is called correlation to the reciprocal or corresponding link that exists between two or more elements. The concept is used in different ways according to the context.

On the other hand, causality is the beginning or origin of something. The concept is used to name the relationship between a cause and its effect, and can be used in the field of physics, statistics and philosophy.
