Which word or phrase is a suitable replacement for the word or at the beginning of the second sentence in this excerpt?

A database is a collection of electronic information that can be accessed using a set of software commands. Or, a database is a set of organized information (electronic) manipulated by a software.





In other words



Possibly



Subsequently



Because of this



Perhaps

Answer 1

The correct answer is "In other words": In other words, a database is a set of organized information (electronic) manipulated by a software.

"Possibly" and "Perhaps" are not correct because they express possibility,they are synonyms to "maybe" and "probably", so they don't have the same meaning as "or".

"Subsequently"  and "Because of this" are synonyms to "as a result", "thus" and "consequently", they don't mean the same thing as "or".
