The structure of the skin is an effective barrier against bacteria. The multiple layers of epidermis, while can be invaded by foreign organisms, has a high turnover rate which means it is constantly shedding, therefore even the bacteria is shed protecting the body. Lastly, the skin's lipids maintain an acidic pH which slows and stops growth and replication of bacteria.
<span>Infiltration is the process by which rainwater becomes groundwater. In the water cycle, which involves primarily; evaporation, condensation and precipitation. Henceforth, after precipitation comes infiltration in the land areas leaving the rainwater aggregated in a single location which accumulates over time. Then this process is followed by runoff and subsurface flow by which water flows through other bodies of water, either in river, sea or ocean, even lake. Other rainwaters that has segregated and wasn’t able to transport itself stays in the process of infiltration, thus groundwater.<span>
Thus, solar radiation doesn't play a role in runoff or infiltration.

Answer:
A
Explanation:
The dead matter from organisms such as plants and animals that die need to be recycled so the nutrients in the matter are released and used up by other organisms. This is how sustainability is achieved in ecosystems through a cyclical nature of nutrients flow. Decomposition of the dead matter is done by decomposers such as fungi and bacteria. Without them, the dead matter would accumulate while the soil would lack nutrients for plants to grow and for other bacteria to utilize for energy. This would affect the rest of the food chain/web causing the ecosystem to collapse.
