History

Which challenge emerged when constructing the terraces required for extensive Andean agriculture?

A)Diminished downstream water availability
B)Increased pathogen transmission to plants
C)Decreased soil bacterial nitrogen fixation
D)Amplified diurnal temperature swings

💡 Explanation

Downstream water diminished because terrace construction via hydraulic diversion decreased available river water. Decreased water flow altered the river's carrying capacity; therefore, less water reached communities further down the valley rather than causing thermal shifts.
