The right option is; A. windblown sand cutting and polishing exposed rock surfaces

Abrasion is best described as windblown sand cutting and polishing exposed rock surfaces.  

Abrasion is a process of erosion which occurs when materials such as soil or rock is removed and wears away at a surface over time. The concentration, hardness, speed and mass of the moving particles are the factors that determine the level of abrasion. Abrasion generally can be caused in four ways which are; by wind, by ice or glaciation, through the action of waves, and by rivers. Abrasion can be found on rocky mountains, on cliffs, at beaches, streams, and beneath glaciers.

Sliva [168]

c. Resistant bacteria have survived and reproduced at a greater rate than nonresistant bacteria

Explanation:

The antibiotic is no longer effective as it was 20 years ago because the resistant bacterial have survived and reproduced at a greater rate than the non-resistant bacteria.

  • The antibiotics have specifically designed to exterminate the disease causing bacteria strain from the body.
  • While at that point in time, it is potent and does the work. Along the line, it will cause the structures of some other strains to change.
  • This will lead to the development of resistant breeds with time.
  • The resistant breed will then be able to survive the onslaught of the antibiotics making it not a good fit.
