← HistoryIn Aztec chinampa agriculture, which primary outcome resulted from disrupted soil particle aggregation?
A)Reduced water infiltration rate✓
B)Increased nutrient uptake efficiency
C)Deeper root penetration depth
D)Enhanced soil buffering capacity
💡 Explanation
Compaction increases as particle aggregation decreases due to increased pressure; this decreases porosity and hinders water infiltration with capillary action into surrounding soil. Therefore, water saturation and water logging occur, rather than roots that penetrate efficiently in drier soils
