Which outcome occurs when increased sediment deposition accumulated within a chinampa system?

💡 Explanation

When excessive sediment is deposited, the chinampa's surface elevation increases because material accumulation exceeds decomposition, eventually surpassing the water table and preventing essential capillary action for continued root hydration. Therefore the soil dries out, rather than improving fertility, reducing flooding significantly, or faster decomposition, which are enabled by differing conditions.
