← HistoryWhich outcome reduces the water table around Mughal gardens when water-lifting Archimedes' screws provide irrigation?
A)Decreased humidity in surrounding ecosystems✓
B)Increased water salinity within drainage systems
C)Localized subsidence of fertile farmland
D)Faster plant growth with increased pressure
💡 Explanation
Decreased humidity occurs due to localized evaporation because water-lifting Archimedes' screws increase exposed surface area, increasing evaporation rates. Therefore the cooler microclimate lowers ecosystem humidity rather than affecting salinity, subsidence pressures, or plant pressures.
