Answer:

C. A steep slope

Explanation:

Erosion is the removal of the top layer of the earth or the gathering of lose weathered materials from rock surfaces.

Agents of erosion are wind, water, glacier and gravity.

Along a very steep slope, erosion is highly rife and very prevalent to the extent that everything there is washed away to be deposited at the bottom of the slope or where gradient is more gentle.

On a steep slope, materials moves rapidly and gravity is very great. When these factors are coupled with the prevailing conditions in a place, little to no deposition occurs for soil formation.

Less than .1% of the energy in a food chain generally makes it from the sun to consumers
Elena-2011 [213]

This statement is true.

Reason:

Plants are capable of storing energy from the sun and with the help of that they produce their own food. And this energy is transformed to the animals as well as human being when they consume the food which was grown on the plants. But when they consume it they are only able to get 10% of the energy and the last consumers are able to get only about 1% of the energy.
