IMO:A

an AOB collects and transmits data on interaction b/w X and Y, --> Question say a modifier for 'interaction'.

B. atmosphere, with interactions affecting

--> with changing the meaning, mean to say that it also transmit data of some other interaction.

C. atmosphere that affects --> that seems to modify atmosphere

D. atmosphere that is affecting --> that seems to modify atmosphere

E. atmosphere as affects ---> as is use for example or comparison ...we dont need as here.

Wat is OA?
