How were the voting dispute inside the Estates-General and the bread crisis outside connected?

Both exposed the inability of the Old Regime

The two crises operated in different spheres but weakened the same Old Regime. Inside the Estates-General, the Third Estate objected to voting by order because the clergy and nobility could outvote the larger Third Estate. This exposed the political unfairness and representative weakness of the absolutist system. Outside, high bread prices and shortages made ordinary people doubt the government’s ability to feed and protect them. Economic hardship intensified public anger and encouraged direct action in Paris and the countryside. Together, the voting dispute and bread crisis linked elite political conflict with popular suffering, turning a fiscal problem into a national revolutionary crisis. Option A is therefore correct; the other choices contradict the political and social effects of these events.
