Which consequence arises when terrace construction fails in ancient chinampa maize agriculture?

💡 Explanation

Increased soil erosion occurs, because terrace construction prevents this via contour plowing, which would create gully erosion (downslope flow of water intensifies), therefore soil and nutrients wash away, rather than being retained for crops.

• Which outcome arises when a blast furnace's internal temperature falls below the iron melting point?
• Which consequence occurs when early chinampa agriculture lacked sufficient aeration?
• Which hydraulic effect limited expansion of Roman aqueducts across deeper valleys?
• During ancient smelting which outcome results because iron blooms are repeatedly hammered?
• Which consequence results when ancient smiths overheated bronze during the lost-wax casting process?
• For a shallow inclined Pre-Columbian terrace, which outcome occurs from compacted soil?
