i think A should be "tRNA" - binds 30s and prevents tRNA from binding to the ribosome

  #4

A-Its aminoacyl t-RNA inhibition binding to ribosome

Sorry typo! smiling face

You all are right... A should say "t-RNA" and NOT "rRNA"...

A is the right answer.

Tetracyclines block the attachment of aninoacyl t-RNA to acceptor site. (bacteriostatic).
