Due to or Because of
I have been taught and read that Because of is an adverb which describes the verb and Due to is an adjective that describes noun.
Could you please notify the noun and verb that each of them modify in the following sentences??
- This in turn will stimulate further investment due to the multiplier effect
- and it is because of these health hazards that stays on the International Space Station are restricted to six months.
- Bamboo is a favored plant among architects and designers because of its incredible strength and durability.
