Which outcome commonly results when acidic groundwater flows through underground limestone caves?

A)Karst topography formation and cave collapses
B)Increased regional seismic activity occurrence
C)Depletion of water resources in aquifers
D)Rapid desertification impacting surface ecosystem

💡 Explanation

The dissolution process widens fractures, leading to karst topography due to the chemical weathering of carbonate bedrock; because dissolution weathers the rock, cave collapses are likely to occur, therefore topography changes can result, rather than immediate effects on seismic faults.
