← HistoryWhich consequence resulted when inaccurate data transmission occurred within an Incan quipu network?
A)Increased structural bridge support demands
B)Misallocation of communal labor resources✓
C)Elevated risk of crop plagues
D)Amplified chance of royal succession feuds
💡 Explanation
An incorrect quipu reading leads to misinforming resource decisions in the Inca empire because it altered allocation calculations. Specifically, inaccurate accounting alters mit'a (communal labor) distribution by miscalculated levies, therefore it risks the efficiency of public work projects rather than impacting bridges or crop infestations.
