Answer:

<h2>Tetracycline affects the  binding of tRNA to the ribosome. </h2><h2>Chloraamphenicol affect: growth of the protein chain.</h2>

Explanation:

1. Antibiotics block protein synthesis mostly in prokaryotes only as prokaryotes contain 70s ribosome.

2. Antibiotics are of various types, which have different targets in protein synthesis, some works on small sub-unit of ribosome and some on large sub-unit.

⇒Tetracycline would directly affect binding of tRNA to the A site on ribosome.  tRNA brings amino acid to the ribosome which pairs with codon on mRNA.

⇒ Chloraamphenicol would directly affect growth of the protein chain because it block peptidyl transfer so the elongation of protein terminates.
