The answer for (c) can be "as if" or "like", but the answer is only "as if", which I doubt. What do you think?
ex) According to field researchers, chimpanzees eat some plants for⒜[medicinal / medical] purposes. Chimps occasionally eat Aspilia, which is not part of chimps’ usual diet ⒝[because / because of] its leaves are rough, sharp and extremely nasty to eat. They usually eat it first thing in the morning and in a very different way than normal food. They do not chew the leaves, but roll them around in their mouth before swallowing. It looks just ⒞[as if / like] they are taking oldfashioned medicine. Some African people use Aspilia to relieve stomach complaints or remove intestinal worms. It also has antibiotic properties. It is thought that chimps use Aspilia for the same purposes.
