Which destabilizing outcome results when Inca terracing lacks sufficient hydrostatic pressure release?

💡 Explanation

Slope failure occurs because increased pore water pressure within poorly drained terrace fill initiates soil liquefaction causing landslides; therefore, catastrophic slope destabilization results with this failure, rather than the soil nutrient or wind related issues.
