History

Which problem plagued early aqueduct-fed chinampa agriculture in Tenochtitlan?

A)Algae blooms reduced oxygen
B)Saltwater intrusion damaged crops
C)Sediment buildup required dredging
D)Erosion undercut terrace foundations

💡 Explanation

Canal sedimentation frequently required dredging because silt particles settled out of slow-moving aqueduct water through sedimentation, therefore, chinampas needed regular maintenance rather than naturally benefiting from continual nutrient refreshment.
