Which outcome results when accelerated chemical reactions during pedogenesis occur?

A)Increased carbon sequestration in soil
B)Enhanced rates of mineral weathering
C)Decreased infiltration of surface water
D)Reduced strength of soil structures

💡 Explanation

Enhanced mineral weathering happens during accelerated chemical pedogenesis because carbonic acid formation increases the rate of hydrolysis to break down parent material; therefore weathering increases rather than organic matter accumulation, which decreases acidic conditions.
