← GeographyWhich erosional landform dominates where groundwater dissolution undermines carbonate bedrock structures?
A)Formation of extensive karst topography✓
B)Development of braided stream networks
C)Creation of cirques in alpine regions
D)Deposition of loess deposits
💡 Explanation
Karst topography forms because chemical weathering via dissolution enlarges fractures in soluble bedrock, therefore solution creates sinkholes, caves, and underground drainage, rather than fluvial, glacial, or aeolian landforms that dominate other regions.
