← GeographyWhich landform often results when deflation lowers ground surfaces?
A)Deflation basin development✓
B)Alluvial fan formation
C)Moraine deposit stabilization
D)Drumlin field elongation
💡 Explanation
Deflation by wind removes fine sediment, causing deflation basin development, because wind erosion acts vertically; therefore a basin is formed, rather than deposition as in alluvial fans, or glacial action affecting moraines and drumlins.
