Which outcome results from intense bioturbation activity within podzol soil horizons?

A)Decreased horizon boundary distinctiveness
B)Accelerated eluviation of iron oxides
C)Increased formation of spodic horizon
D)Reduced soil organic matter decomposition

💡 Explanation

Bioturbation mixes soil layers, decreasing the sharpness of horizon boundaries because the physical reworking disrupts the distinct zones created through pedogenesis; therefore indistinct layering occurs, rather than enhanced horizons, eluviation acceleration, or reduced decomposition which are consequences of different soil processes.
