Mrs. Strunk's Earth Science class used an erosion model to investigate the relationship between the slope of a hill, or incline, and the amount of soil that washes off of the incline. The class increased the slope of the incline from 1 to 5. Then, they poured 100 ml of water down the incline. Finally, they collected the soil from a tray at the bottom of the incline, dried the soil in an oven, and used a balance to find the mass of the soil. The data from their study is shown below. Based on the graph, more soil is washed away when A. the slope of the incline is steeper. B. the slope of the incline is less steep. C. the soil is made mostly of sand. D. there are fewer rocks in the soil.

Astudy by solloch and et. al., in 2017, gives the map above which shows the frequency of alleles with a ccr5-delta32 mutations over 87 different countries. this mutation deletes the presence of a co-receptor (ccr5) on the outside of human t-cells (lymphocytes). some viruses, such as the one responsible for the black death and human immunodeficiency virus (hiv), require this receptor for attachment to host cells during the infection process. the black death was an epidemic that passed over northern europe during the 14th century killing nearly 60% of europeans. according to this information, which explanation best explains why northern europeans show a greater immunity for hiv than some other parts of the world?
