← GeographyWhich consequence results when soil experiences increased rates of bioturbation?
A)Enhanced soil horizon homogenization✓
B)Decreased organic matter decomposition
C)Reduced rainfall infiltration rates
D)Diminished soil aggregate stability
💡 Explanation
Increased bioturbation causes enhanced soil horizon homogenization, because organisms redistribute materials leading to less distinct layering. Therefore, horizon blending accelerates, rather than layered profile formation, and increases water infiltration.
