Which outcome occurs when surface soil acidity increases above karst bedrock?

A)Accelerated limestone dissolution forms larger stalactites
B)Slower evaporation increases stalactite deposition
C)Silicate precipitation enhances bedrock stabilization
D)Reduced cave ventilation forms smaller stalactites

💡 Explanation

Increased acidity enhances the dissolution of calcium carbonate via chemical weathering; accelerated Dissolution creates more calcium-rich runoff because lower pH levels increase limestone breakdown, therefore more material is available for stalactite formation, rather than slower erosion.
