History

Which advantage was conferred by the intensive labor investment required cultivating chinampas in Aztec society?

A)Enhanced nutrient cycling from wetland sediments
B)Reduced erosion from terrace construction
C)Increased photosynthetic efficiency from crop rotation
D)Suppressed pest populations through soil sterilization

💡 Explanation

Chinampa cultivation, requiring intensive labor, unlocked enhanced nutrient cycling because the dredging of fertile sediments from canals replenished the soil, fostering higher crop yields. Therefore, enhanced nutrient cycling favored chinampas, rather than erosion reduction, photosynthetic boosting or sterilization due to other factors entirely.
