What is the most effective transition to use between ideas in an essay?

Furthermore
In conclusion
Despite this
However

The correct answer is: However

"Furthermore" indicates a continuation of a previous idea, whereas "In conclusion" and "Despite this" are concluding transitions, which suggest the end of an essay or a summary of the previous points. "However" is the most effective transition to use between ideas because it shows a contrast or shift in thinking, which strengthens the overall argument and adds depth to the essay. This transition can also help to keep the reader engaged and interested in the progression of ideas.
