← GeographyWhich landscape change accelerates when subsurface water's mineral concentration decreases?
A)Karst topography formation intensifies✓
B)Glacier calving rate reduces
C)Alluvial fan deposition stalls
D)Desert pavement formation slows
💡 Explanation
Increased dissolution is the outcome because undersaturated water increases mineral erosion and thus karst development; therefore, the change accelerates karst landscapes, rather than the slower rates of glacial or alluvial processes.
