History

Which outcome results when the raised bed construction of Aztec chinampas fails during an exceptionally wet rainy season?

A)Accelerated soil nutrient leaching
B)Increased evapotranspiration rates
C)Enhanced nitrogen fixation by bacteria
D)Decreased soil salinity levels

💡 Explanation

Accelerated soil nutrient leaching occurs because saturation promotes the wash-out of soluble nutrients below the root zone, thereby reducing fertility of the raised beds, rather than the soil retaining nutrients during prolonged flood conditions.
