← HistoryWhen constructing pre-Columbian chinampas, which consequence resulted from unchecked eutrophication?
A)Anaerobic conditions kill root crops✓
B)Accelerated hydrolysis weakens soil
C)Increased transpiration dries sediments
D)Lower albedo increases overheating
💡 Explanation
If excessive nutrients are added, algal blooms deplete oxygen because decomposition consumes it, thereby inhibiting root respiration rather than alternatives. Therefore, anaerobic conditions directly kill crops; rather than the other processes arising.
