Why These Connect
The narrative assertion
"The Doctor realizing the plan will destroy all life on the planet directly causes Liz to act, causing the reactor to overload and destroy the disperser, foiling the Silurians' plan to eliminate the Van Allen belt and demonstrating Liz's trust and willingness to follow the Doctor's lead in a high-stakes situation."
About Causal Connections
A directly causes B. The first event sets forces in motion that produce the second. These are the load-bearing connections of plot--remove one and the story structure collapses.
