Answer:
The correct answer is statement b.
Explanation:
This is due to the fact that the reduction of the vast majority of forest land, that is, mainly in Brazil has resulted in the extinction of the unknown and the familiar species. This has also declined the biological diversity and thus has immensely affected the fertility of the soil.
The soil has turned shallow and thus are less fertile in comparison to the Mid-Western United States. The Midwestern parts of the United States possess variety of soils, which are produced due to the glacial deposits and thus provides more fertility to the soil.
That would be C.

Treatment
Meningitis is an infection of the membranes, meninges that surrounds and protects the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord). Bacterial meningitis must be treated immediately with intravenous antibiotics and sometimes corticosteroids and, of course, the antibiotic depends on the type of bacteria causing the infection.
Prevention
First of all, to prevent the spread of bacterial meningitis it is important to practice good hygiene, such as frequent handwashing. Since the factors that increase the risk include spending time in communities (school, campus or college) because it spreads easily, children should be aware and vaccinated. As several types of bacteria can cause bacterial meningitis, a range of vaccines is wide (e.g. meningococcal vaccine, Hib vaccine).
If the web happened to look like this one I attached then the anwser would be shrubs. If you take a look at the arrows the shrubs energy is moving to rats, insects and lizards which in turn feeds the coyotes. The starting point is shrubs and in general most food webs start with plants.
