← GeographyWhich outcome results from acidic infiltration in karst regions?
A)Accelerated limestone weathering and cave formation✓
B)Increased sediment deposition in river deltas
C)Enhanced silicate mineral formation in soils
D)Reduced soil permeability and increased runoff
💡 Explanation
Dissolution of limestone accelerates because carbonic acid dissolves calcium carbonate, leading to cave systems; therefore, erosion increases, rather than processes governing sediment deposition, silicate reactions, or soil permeability affected directly.
