← HistoryWhich risk increases when poorly compacted terracing impacts gravity-fed aqueducts?
A)Decreased channel flow capacity✓
B)Elevated nitrogen fixation levels
C)Increased surface water evaporation
D)Substrate nutrient absorption loss
💡 Explanation
Decreased channel flow capacity becomes prominent because differential settling triggers Aqueduct misalignment, obstructing channels. This process reduces the cross-sectional area, diminishing potential discharge, therefore, rather than evaporation or nutrient changes, the flow is constricted first due Aqueduct misalignment.
