Which outcome occurs when increased feldspar weathering affects pedogenesis?

💡 Explanation

Increased feldspar weathering during pedogenesis releases elements, such as silicon and aluminum, promoting hydrolysis that causes increased clay mineral formation; therefore, option A is correct, rather than B, C, or D, because they involve other processes.
