History

In Aztec chinampa agriculture, which nutritional deficiency arises from intense maize cultivation without fallowing?

A)Inadequate copper soil availability
B)Reduced soil nitrogen content
C)Insufficient phosphorus mineralization rates
D)Depleted calcium carbonate enrichment

💡 Explanation

Intense maize cultivation depletes soil nitrogen, which affects protein synthesis, because maize is a heavy nitrogen feeder; therefore less nitrogen results in poor yields, rather than other deficiencies which may occur at lower rates.
