Because the Epipelagic Zone (or Euphotic Zone) receives enough sunlight for photosynthesis to occur. Since those tiny organisms who live there such as cyanobacteria and planktons are photosinthetic ones, they make up the base of the food chain and therefore are called primary producers. If they ceased to exist we would face several problems from loss of breathable air to food shortage.

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is The drug binds to the 30S small ribosomal  subunit eukaryotes have 40S small sub unit.

Explanation:

Tetracycline belongs to broad spectrum antibiotic.Tetracycline is named so because it contain a derivative of four hydrocarbon rings.

 Tetracycline act by inhibiting the protein synthesis process in prokatotes by binding to the small ribosomal subunit also called 30S subsunit and blocks the binding of amino acyl tRNA to the A site or attachment site of ribosome.

 As eukaryotes contain 40S ribosomal  subunit,it becomes difficult for tetracycline to bind with 40S ribosomal subunit of eukaryotes.
