Which outcome is caused by increasing orographic lifting?

💡 Explanation

Enhanced precipitation is caused by orographic lifting because the air mass rises and cools, increasing relative humidity and resulting in intense condensation; therefore, this favors precipitation rather than the rate of weathering or glacial formation.
