← HistoryWhich outcome occurs due to inadequate soil stabilization terraces?
A)Topsoil loss and reduced fertility✓
B)Increased carbon sequestration efficiency
C)Enhanced mineralization of the soil
D)Enhanced nitrogen fixation rates occur
💡 Explanation
Inadequate soil stabilization causes increased rates hillside erosion, which depletes topsoil nutrients through soil runoff losses, exhibiting soil erosion because gravitational forces exceed resistive soil capabilities; therefore terrace systems will decline in fertility rather than enhancing alternate soil processes.
