← GeographyWhich process forms enlarged cave conduits when dissolution efficiency changes?
A)Increased mixing corrosion✓
B)Decreased sediment abrasion
C)Increased speleothem deposition
D)Decreased microbial activity
💡 Explanation
Mixing corrosion enlarges conduits because the mixing of chemically distinct waters increases undersaturation, which enhances dissolution, therefore conduits enlarge readily rather than remaining constrained by single-source water inputs.
