The correct option is B.

Mutual Fund is the sum of contributions in money delivered by natural and legal persons to a corporation or administrator, so that it invests in different types of financial instruments that are public offering values or even goods, with the aim of achieving a profit, which is then shared among all who made a contribution.

Unlike savings, the amounts invested in mutual funds do not have a guaranteed profit, since mutual funds run the risk that the investments made do not deliver the expected return. Therefore, the profit may be less than expected or you may even lose part or all of the money invested.

the correct answer is 2.

in this image, 1 is the surface of rapture (scarp), 2 the slump block, 3 main scarp (crown), 4 base of rapture with debris flow.

slumps are caused by clear cutting on unstable soils and the sagging of earth, in coastal areas they are due to wave infiltration.

imagine me knowing the answer
