Which risk increases when a high-frequency signal exceeds the Nyquist rate during data acquisition?

💡 Explanation

Signal aliasing occurs, because exceeding the Nyquist rate causes high-frequency components to be misinterpreted as lower frequencies due to undersampling during analog-to-digital conversion, therefore correct reconstruction fails, rather than just incurring quantization error.
