Which condition causes increased cave system formation via dissolution?

A)Increased soil acidity levels increase dissolution
B)Decreased temperature gradients reduce groundwater flow
C)Plant root density reinforces cave structure
D)Sediment deposition reduces limestone weathering

💡 Explanation

Higher soil acidity promotes dissolution because the increased hydrogen ions enhance the chemical weathering by **leaching** of the limestone; therefore, more caves form, rather than being stabilized by temperature or plant roots.
