← GeographyWhich geological outcome occurs when consistent aeolian abrasion impacts rock?
A)Ventifact formation appears progressively✓
B)Soil mineral nutrient bioavailability decreases
C)Deep ocean trench sediment accumulation increases
D)Regional orographic precipitation amount declines
💡 Explanation
Because aeolian abrasion involves wind-driven erosion against exposed rocks, ventifact formation appears progressively; the sandblasting effect causes distinct faceted surfaces. Therefore, ventifacts emerge, rather than effects on soil, oceans, or precipitation patterns, involving different mechanisms.
