The question is <u>incomplete,</u> options are given below:

A. A tropical area with moderate rainfall

B. A temperate forest

C. A steep slope

D. A river delta

Answer:

<em>C.</em><em> A steep slope</em>

Explanation:

Erosion is a <u>weathering process</u> that causes removal of the top layer of sediments from any geological material (rock, plain area, etc) and then transports that material to another place. This process is governed by the combined action of wind, water (precipitation), gravity, and other meteorological parameters.

For this question, four options are given among which rate of erosion would be faster than the rate of soil formation for a steep slope. For a steep slope, the movement of water and wind would be stronger along with high gravitational pull as compared to the tropical area, river delta, and temperate forest. In principle, in the temperate forest, the erosion would be lowest due to the presence of plant roots that support the soil material to stay aggregated and resist against weathering.

Answer;

-inhibition of peptidoglycan synthesis

-inhibition of fimbriae synthesis

-interfering with translation at 70s ribosomes

Explanation;

- Selective toxicity refers to the ability of the drug to targets sites that are relative specific to the microorganism responsible for infection. Sometimes these sites are unique to the microorganism or simply more essential to survival of the microorganism than to the host.

-Antibacterial action generally falls within one of four mechanisms, three of which involve the inhibition or regulation of enzymes involved in cell wall biosynthesis, nucleic acid metabolism and repair, or protein synthesis, respectively. The fourth mechanism involves the disruption of membrane structure.
