B Correct answer
Explanation

(b) Steep slopes cause fast, running of water which result in erosion and do not Permit the accumulation of hymns so the soil cordless denjuded` In sulked soil plants cannot grow properly and vegetation changes into xerophytic plants. In valleys humus accumulates, so they have luxuriant vegetation and slopes contain xerophytic Plants.
