Which consequence directly results when intense aridity limits 'bioturbation' in semi-arid soils?

A)Reduced soil horizon development rate
B)Increased soil organic matter decomposition
C)Accelerated chemical weathering of minerals
D)Enhanced soil aggregate stabilization rate

💡 Explanation

Reduced ‘bioturbation’ limits soil mixing because less activity from organisms prevents particle turnover. As a result, horizon stratification decreases therefore the rate of soil profile development declines, rather than accelerated weathering; those are effects of chemical reactions.
