← HistoryWhich outcome decreases water flow to garden terraces within the historic Shalamar Bagh system?
A)Silt accumulates within the channel's aqueducts✓
B)Evaporation increases due to higher temperature
C)Pumps fail due to lack of fuel
D)Pipes burst below excessive pressure
💡 Explanation
The sedimentation of silt causes reduced flow because it decreases channel cross-section via deposition. Therefore, the aqueduct's volumetric flow rate diminishes, rather than changing due to temperature or pressure fluctuations causing bursts; pump failures are implausible given aqueduct gravity.
